The host acts as an internal router for machines and devices on the LAN. if its on a LAN with private addressing, you want to use a dedicated LAN IP address, seperate from the host's LAN IP, but since its behinda NAT router, I really don't know how you'd expect it to use DDNS as that will only see the router's internet IP address. ---------------------------------------- This is what I was seeing. Either it lands on the DSL router's login page or the host's website. I guess this is why I'm confused. I thought a VM could be setup as its own domain with all available services. -- john r pierce, recycling bits in santa cruz _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
