Where am I? DNS problem?

Amahi 7 32-bit under Fedora 19 on an ancient Dell laptop.

For some reason, I can only get to my server by directing the browser to the internal IP address. http://hta takes me out to the internet. Not terrible, but now that I've installed a couple of apps which use the fake domain name I registered my server with, they also take me out to the internet -- there is an actual registered domain out there called MYHOUSENUMBER.net.

So OneCloud directs me to onecloud6.MYHOUSENUMBER.net which is somebody's financial news blog . . . :/

AjaXplorer takes me to the same blog.

I tried disabling DHCP service on my router, but the same thing happens. HELP!

Thank you, Bigfoot. I'm trying. Logged onto the IRC channel as well, trying to get this straightened out. I'm not experienced in Linux or networking. I'm trying to follow the instructions on the Interatctive Troubleshooter, but when I use Putty to log on to the Amahi server, commands like 'nslookup' and 'ipconfig' don't work: I get this response "-bash: ipconfig: command not found"

Need to install the tools.

Code: Select all

yum install net-tools
We probably need to add this to the wiki page.

Yes, that would be helpful. I also had to install bind-utils to get nslookup.

Thanks for the feedback. I will add that one also.

We have an app that installs those tools, but does not help if you cannot access the apps LOL
