[users@httpd] Setup question - Is this possible?

[Paul <tr...@qwest.net>]

I have Apache/PHP/MySQL all runing and playing nice together in two
different under different OS (Win & Linux).  I'd like to open my site up to
friends and myself but I'm not sure if I can because of my house network.
All of the computers in the house are hooked to a Netgear FS308 fast
eithernet switch which in turn has a Cisco 678 router plugged into it for my
DSL connection.

I've played a bit with Open Domain Server (http://www.ods.org/) but haven't
gotten it to work. I think the problem is due to the switch and the router
not knowing which port the server is on (10.0.0.3).  I'm not sure if this is
workable, or if it is, where to even start.

Anyone got a setup like this working?

Paul

If I understand correctly, I have the same thing you are describing working
just fine.  3 computers behind a cable router, with one serving up
apache/php/database content.

Really, the only thing you need to do is make your public ip/port 80 route
to the private computer on port 80.  Usually, the lower end routers have a
web interface for configuring the routes at the lowest possible IP for your
private network (.0 or .1, depending).
