[users@httpd] Apache With SBC DSL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is a little off topic. I asked the question before but I have
additional information about the problem and it may make a difference. I
have been told that the IP address given depends upon location so let it be
known that I am in the Detroit area of Michigan.

Currently I have dialup and use DynDNSUpdater to change my IP address in DNS
(through DynDNS.org).

I am going to be ordering DSL from SBC this week. I have my own PC and then
I want to have an Apache webserver on another PC. I want both hooked up to
the DSL. The DSL that I am ordering will have a dynamic IP address.

After talking to no less than 5 SBC DSL people, I know less now than before
I talked with them. I called tech support and asked if I will be getting a
routable IP address. (The person who will be doing the hookup for me told me
to ask that question.) The way she said yes caused me to ask the next
question. Is it a 192 address? Yep, you guessed it! The answer was yes.

Sooo, I need to find out how to work with the worse case scenario - that I
receive a dynamic non-routable IP address. How can people access my site
with a domain name if the dynamic address keeps changing and it is a private
network (192.0.0.0) address? My understanding is that the modem has the
dynamic non-routable address. If a router is next and then the webserver,
how can people reach the webserver?

I hope that I explained it clear enough. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Mike
