Re: Expose my server to internet (Apache Users)

Hello @Richard and @Monah baki

@Richard,

-- what is the public IPnumber of your server?

I'm not sure whether it's OK or not to tell my public IP openly. But I can give partial IP address.

xxx.xxx.221.102

-- what is the public DNS name for your server (i.e., the dns entry

padmahasa.ddns.net

that points to the public IPnumber)?

Yeah that points to public IP number.

@Monah,

I think the firewall will not be active by default and I double checked with firewall, which is not active in my Ubuntu system.

But should I do any weird thing like, activating it and explicitly allow http traffic in?

Until now this is the situation.

1. There is no problem with OS and firewall.

2. There is no problem with web server configuration.

3. There is no problem with my ISP (I had asked my ISP whether they are going to block any incoming traffic but they said No).

Still not able to reach my server from internet.

Let me know what you guys think the reason could be.

Thank you.
