Is it possibile? DNS + port redirect?

[legolas23]

Hello
I have an Ot server and I am hosting it on computer with router so I redirected my website port to 7172. And ip too server website is

http;\\"myip"+":7172"

And ip to ot is normal (just "myip")

But how to make ip of website and server the same? Is it any way to do it?

I heard that a domain is a slove of this problem but please tell me is it true or show me the other way to amke these ip's the same.

Port port 80 to your web page.

Port 80 is default on internet explorer, firefox, google chrome etc.

So if you choose port 80 for web page, you will only need to type your IP there.

If you got etc legolasOT.com

You can also probably make legolasOT.com a DNS for port 7172, so you only have to type legolasOT.com and it will come into your homepage as well. (example).

I guess these are the easiest ways to do it. There are most likely many other options to choose from as well.

But when I go on port 80 there is a router login panel

Yeah then your router is occupying port 80. Try to see if there is a function where you can disable that, or choose another port for your router.

You have to look at your own router, and make yourself a bit familiar with it. There are many different routers out there, so I cant help you much there.

Will I find it on powrtfoward.com?
My router model is Linksys Wrt54GC

i probably find out how to do it!!

Port Forwarding for the Linksys WRT54G

Is this that you told me to do?

 

[legolas23]

I can 't do this cause one port 80 80 is opened for other user and i cannot open it twice. Is a domain slove of a problem?

If port 8080 or 80 there you gonna use the domain is occupied then you can't do anything about it
Some dynamic ip sites:
DYNDNS
NO-IP

Enjoy!!

 

[legolas23]

iS PORT 8080 SAME AS 80? Or they are both deflaut ports for websites?


I'm thinking abount buying a domain that I can put on my server website (is it possiblie btw?) and do it also a DNS for my serv.

With the DNS function in your router, you can make your router contact an domain to make the DNS always up to date to your IP, this would solve OTs problems with dynamic IP hosters, though domain server is not supported in TFS.

If port 80 is already busy, then look at used ports, and change the local IP to your computer. Because if it is as you says, then your router have reserved port 80 for the router itself. Just change it to your computer.

atm busy my words are a bit mixed.
