Your webserver needs to be configured to respond to your specific hostname, if it uses virtual hostnames to determine which site to respond to queries with. If it replies to all queries with the same site, this doesn't matter. b. Your DNS server needs to have your domain name pointed at the public IP of the webserver. You can do a test run of this on your own computer running Apache, just put your test domain name into your hosts file, associating it with your LAN IP address. e.g. $ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 192.168.1.1 www.example.com example.com NB: 192.168.1.1 is *my* LAN IP for one of my PCs, substitute your own. And the two example.com domain names are my faked examples. Now, if your problem purtains to how to configure cloudfare, I don't know what to advise. Beyond that they should have help docs. If you're stuck part way through their help docs, send us the address for the help page you're looking at, and tell us where your stuck. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1062.18.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 17 23:49:17 UTC 2020 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
