Norman!
Thanks for the encouragement! I feel like I slamming
my head against a telephone pole as I am getting nowhere.
My DSL modem that connects me to the internet has the
static IP address of "66.113.46.108
michaelsrogers.com". I know the problem is between the DSL modem and my
Apache Server. Just where I don't know.
In the host file on the machine that the Apache is on I
made the entry of "10.0.0.115 michaelsrogers.com". This same machine has
an IP address of 10.0.0.115 and seems to be staying with it even though I have
rebooted several times.
In my Linksys router I have made the port forwarding
entries to point to "10.0.0.115 on port 80.
When I turn off the DHCP server in my computer that has
the Apache on it, and make it a static IP address then none of my computers will
connect to the internet
There is something that I missed.
I am going to try going into TCP/IP settings in the
alternate Configuration tab in use the first three lines and see what
happens. The statement in the setting tab says "if this computer is used
on more then one network. enter the alternate IP settings below."
Expect for the one guy/gal who made
the inappropriate remark, I have appreciated the help that everyone has
given me so far. I would just ask that everyone please be patient with me,
and I might just get the problem resolved with your help!
