Actually not true. I did it for a few weeks when my dsl provider went belly up (until I got a new dsl provider connected). BUT... Since the Code Red attacks, at least AT&T has been supposedly blocking all requests to port 80. I can still lots of request though. Even though you have an IP address, I was told it is not dynamic and can change. Mine hasn't in 18 months. I have seen some servers on cable modems. You do stand to have your service disconnected unless you got service somehow that says you can have a server on it. You could maybe use one of the address forwarding services. You point your url at them and then they point it at your dynamic IP and a port number like 8080. I guess you machine contacts them and lets it know what it's IP address is. This on the other hand would not work for you behind the firewall as it would have one of the 192.168.x.x addresses and that is not the one it would be looking for. It might work if you manually change it. Just remember, as Dan stated, most cable access providers don't allow you to run a server. There is some commercial cable service. I have not seen any, but an email I got from AT&T reference it as they would not be blocking port 80 on any commercial cable accounts.
You obviously can't use a 192.168. address. Besides, most cable access providers don't allow you to run a server. I'd recommend you get a copy of DNS and Bind and look at the Linksys site for port forwarding info. -- Dan Kriwitsky _______________________________________________ cobalt-users mailing list cobalt-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To Subscribe or Unsubscribe, please go to: http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-users
