I am trying to set up apache on my home computer, that has a dynamic ip address. I was wondering if anyone knows of any good free dns providers that work with linux and apache, and if there are any guides on how to setup apache on linux. I installed it and cant seem to get it to display warcraftvoodoo.servegame.org:8080 to anyone outside of my house. I am completely lost and confused and about to give up on linux I have been tying for over a month now.
i use dnydns.org for my free DNS name there is an client i think for linux i know there is one for windows if u got an windows desktop pc just run it on that pc it just sends out the WAN IP to them so if it changes its updates ok check the firewall settings on the OS to see if its blocking ports and add port 8080 or 8000 or what port number range your using and if you are using an router make sure you got the NAT setup right linux box IP : port set in the router simple way to check is at canyouseeme.org put in the port you want to test and its check it
okay i kinda understand that. No i dont have a winblows box. just a linux box. how do i configure apache to see the warcraftvoodoo.servegame.org addy?
if its the only one DNS address you got it should be fine if you running more than you have to add NameVirtualHost * to the apache.conf or httpd.conf file
