If I understand how it was explained to me, if say your NAT address is 192.168.1.3 and your public IP is 123.123.123.123, when you go to 123.123.123.123, it isn't going to your router, so it doesn't know where to go. Like for me, I have www.mydomain.com , which works from the outside, but on my local machine, I had to set up a alias entry in my hosts file for www.mydomain.com to go to 192.168.1.X - I'm guessing it's the same for your public IP.
