Mail and Web Server behind a firewall

[Wil McGilvery]

Why not just use a hosts file for internal resolution.

How many machines are we talking about?

Subject: [TLUG]: Mail and Web Server behind a firewall


I'm sure there's an easy answer to this, I'm just at a loss to come up
with it at the moment.

My setup is pretty straight-forward.  I have a Linksys DSL Router
sitting off of my modem, forwarding the necessary ports to a PC on the
internal LAN.  In the past, I've had no-ip.com serve the DNS zones for
my domains, and configured BIND on the server for the local net.

Now that I have a static IP address from IStop (thanks Ralph!), I now
need to serve the DNS zone for my domains to the outside world. Here's
the problem:  my machine thinks that it's address is 192.168.1.2 (for
example), but the rest of the world sees it as 66.11.182.61.  How to
configure BIND to serve the domain properly to the outside world, while
keeping Apache and Qmail from screaming?

Thanks in Advance!

Kareem
