    hi guys,
    I have a server which is behind the nat,
    I've forwarded all required port to my server.
    it is working fine now but the problem is that
    every single website that I add to my list
    I must go step by step and add external IP address
    to dns record, it also make me confuse how to treat
    ISPconfig for behind-the-nat situation,

    is it worthy or possible to add features and option
    to ISPConfig that it will somehow behave automatically?


    Thanks

    The DNS records must all point to your public IP address.

    thanks for your reply

    so how to setup external and internal ip in ISPConfig to avoid confusion?
    I don't want to take ISPConfig out of automation it already has.
    because, reseller may now know how to setup everything when they're
    adding new website.

    thanks again

    When you create a web site in ISPConfig, you must use the internal IP address (the one that you see in the
    Code:
    ifconfig
    output). But for DNS, always use the public IP address.
