DNS???

[aljachimiak]

okay...

I understand the concept of Dynamic DNS...

I have port forwarded a port to my HDA's static ip...

so when I surf to aljachimiak.yourhda.com what should I see?

is it the same thing I see when I type HDA into the address bar inside the network?

If so - it doesn't work...Halp!

OTay...

I figured it out... I had the wrong port forwarded to the HDA's ip adddress

My confusion was that I thought it needed to be 5900 but it actually needed 80.

I have successfully been able to install and access webapps via dyndns:

for example:

jampache.dyndns.info

jamahiwebvnc.dyndns.info

I would rather access it as part of the dyndns that amahi sets up...is this a possibility?

something like:

aljachimiak.yourhda.com/ampache ???

no, not as separate directory /ampache. they are virtual hosts based.
if you have a comain you can map A records or C records to it.

also, keep in mind that this will be public ... so it's a potential hazard of intrusion in your network.

I don't know what you are talking about here...I'm a noob

Not a problem...nothing important other that a few cd's... If I get exploited by some spammer or otherwise... I'll just shut it down

At this point I'm having fun learning about all this cool functionality...

I was just hoping to come up with a way to have less addresses to remember...

we will make this easier in the future ...
