Ok, so I set up the Perfect Setup : Ubuntu, and everything is ok, I can log on to ISPconfig using 192.168.0.100:81, and thats all fine. But one thing I really never understood throughout the whole setup is what is my public IP address? I would like for people to be able to connect to my site, and I really dont understand this. I looked around the forum but couldnt find anything, so if it has been answered a million times im sorry. If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciate, thanks.
your public IP is the one that your ISP gives you , when you connect to the next WAN IP : 10.10.10.1 is my public IP( just an demo) think of it this way : the public IP is just an phone number anyone can call it to get to you
You can find out your current public IP address by visting that web site: http://whatismyipaddress.com/ If you have a dynamic IP address, it will change every 24 hours. If you don't want to look up your IP address each 24 hours, you could use a service like dyndns.org and get a dyndns.org domain name that points to your public IP.
