Hi again

I tried out dyndns.org last night from home as suggested by Petre Scheie 
and it all worked ok from my laptop via a dialup modem. So I'm trying 
the same thing with the static IP here at school, but of course the 
setup is not the same as home.

Our static IP is 61.9.218.104 and using dyndns.org I've attached it to
redeemer.homelinux.com as a test.

I then tried our modem router GUI again and the numbers are slowly 
starting to make sense. So I had a go at the IP route table adding the 
second 2 entries you see (ip-address-route2.gif):
10.0.0.1/32                   61.9.218.104/32                    10.0.0.138
61.9.218.104/32                 10.0.0.1/32                 10.0.0.138
(which way is correct?)
All the other entries on the table were already there, I didn't add them.

I also went to the NAT settings (napt-settings.gif) and changed the
unspecified Outside IP to the static IP.

Below are the webmin network interface details...

Interfaces Active Now
Name         Type         IP Address         Netmask         Status
eth0         Ethernet         192.168.0.254         255.255.255.0         Up
eth1         Ethernet         10.0.0.1         255.0.0.0         Up
lo         Loopback         127.0.0.1         255.0.0.0         Up

And also after reading what Les wrote:
"That is, if your k12ltsp server or
clients on the inside network resolve the site name to the public
address and send the packet to the router, it probably won't NAT it back
the same way as if it came from the outside."

... Does this mean that I might get the intranet accessible from the 
outside the school but not know about it unless I actually was outside?
http://61.9.218.104/ still doesn't go to http://10.0.0.1/ I have now 
tried it from outside (at home) and the broswer says connection refused.

Any pointers as to what to try now?

Thanks,

Debbie

ps - as a newbie I'm not sure if sending images to the list is an OK 
thing to do, so please let me know either way.
