How do I set up a home server? My computer is part of home network, shared using Linksys wireless router. My computer is serving a website locally using Apache. Everything is fine. Now I want to make my webiste acessible through Internet. So I open router configuration and enter port forwarding (port 80 to my local ip). Then I tried "http://myExternalRouterIP" on other computer in and out of the network, my Apache is not responding. I changed to 8080 in Apache config, the same problem occured. My ISP does not block incoming requests. Because I can access my router configuration remotely, if I enable it. There are very few firewall options inside the configuration panel. Block Anonymous Internet Requests Filter Multicast Filter Internet NAT Redirection Filter IDENT(Port 113) I disabled option 1 and 3. Anyone else using Linksys Wiressless router and having the same problem? dear brendan_erofeev, Yes other computers in the local network can access my website. I believe Apache configurations are alright. I just suspect Linksys settings. Because there are not enough firewall options.
