Topic: External Website access

[Swoopert]

Help!

I've been running e-smith / SME for a long time now, and recently built a new server using 7.1, as my old box finally blew.

I serve two websites (www.break-off.net & www.spcmembers.org), using Telewest broadband / dyndns.org Custom DNS.

The DNS appears to be pointing external users to my correct Dynamic IP (currently 80.192.34.72), but I can't seem to get any external web traffic to my httpd server!?!

I can see the sites fine internally...and there is definitely no external traffic in the httpd_accesslog...

Also, I can browse the web, and use Xbox Live etc with no problems.

Any ideas how I can find out where the traffic is getting stuck? (Also no mail working...)

Well the ip you gave me works. So i don't see the problem.
Do you have problem with domains only? Because the spcmembers.org works.

Thanks anyway

I think that you had dns routing problems. It can take up to 6 hours when you set dns records because they need to refresh.

Just for the record so you don't go and reset your server to death next time when you have domain problems. Just wait for a couple of hours and then reset at will.
