Hi,
I was trying to set up my computer as a webserver, running Apache on WinXP. It works just fine behind my router, but from the outside it simply doesn't find the server. I happened to find some similar topics on this forum but not with the same problem.
I have set up port forwarding and this -seems- to work. I can access the website through my external IP (as long as I'm behind the router), which doesn't work if I disable the port forwarding. I tried using different ports than 80 with the exact same result. The only firewall in between is on the router and those ports are opened. It's a Topcom BR 604.
If anyone could give me some hints on what might be wrong here, I'd appreciate it
