Hi there,
I'm trying to do something different from the norm here, so please forgive me.
I have a Windows 2003 Standard Edition Server which is the DNS server for my domain. I have a client on the domain that I want to reach via no-ip.info (call it adam.no-ip.info for now). I set up a forward lookup zone for no-ip.info on the DNS server such that adam.no-ip.info resolves to the IP address o the client PC, as well as the corresponding reverse lookup pointer and nslookup confirms that it's working.
If I type in adam.no-ip.info into a web browser from within the network (any client or the server itself), I see the page I created on the client PC for testing purposes. However, if I do the same test on say a proxy server, I see the default web page for the server and not the client.
What else would I need to do so that externally, I would see the same thing as internally? (Note: I'm not actually hosting a website on the client machine or I would use the web server...it's an application that requires a client machine and a web server.)
Thanks.

The problem is, if your Public address is dynamic, you will only get one IP address, and the limitation of NAT when an incoming connection comes in on that one IP, on a given port, it can be mapped to only one client. If you want the IP to mapped to more than one client, each connection would have to be a a unique port.

Hi Kevin,
Just to clear this up (since I think I get what you mean):
In order for me to access the second machine on port 80 (or any other port of my choosing...ultimately I need to access both ports 80 and 3389), then I'd need to figure out how to port forward say 8080 to port 80 on the client?
Thanks.

Yes. If you only have one external IP (dynamic or static but only 1) but need to map the same SERVICE to different internal machines then each such mapping will need one external PORT to make that work.
So yes, for the web you can send 80 to one place, 8000 to another, 8080 to a third etc. AND you have to tell the outside clients about this somehow so they can specify it -- or have it built into the link they follow to reach you.
For 3389 to RDP it is even harder (or easier depening on what you actually do) since you have to work harder to tell the RDP client and server to use another port. Especially the server which requires a registry change and (I believe) then only works on this altered port even for internal-internal connections.
BUT one trick with RDP that works best if this is "just for you" (or other admins) is the "leapfrog RDP" method:
Connect to only one machine from outside, then run an RDP client from the INTERNAL machine to reach any other internal machine by "leapfrogging".

You get the jest of it, one external port can only be remapped once to only one internal IP.
You are better off using VPN to get in, and once in, you can RDP into any of the machines using their internal NetBIOS names (provided you have WINS support).
I suggest a Cisco PIX, but you can always use Windows RRAS. PPTP is the easiest and quickest to setup. Just setup RRAS as a VPN/router. Then to provide PPTP connectivity to allow Windows RRAS to authenticate and provide the connection, on your current firewall/NAT device, port remap TCP 1723 and Protocol ID #47 to the internal RRAS.

Port 80 could only go to one client, port 8080 to one server, 3389 to one client. The only way around this is to map alternate ports, the way to work around this is to use port remapping, if your NAT device supports this (Windows NAT does) for instance, for the RDP connection, you can use remapped ports like this: <publicIP>:3389--><internalIP>:3389 <publicIP>:3390--><secondinternalIP>:3389 <publicIP>:3391--><thirdinternalIP>:3389
Then in your RDP client use adam.no-ip.info for the default 3389 port, adam.no-ip.info:3390, adam.no-ip.info:3391, etc. Each of these connections will get mapped to the correct client behind NAT. It works the same for web servers http://adam.no-ip.info will go to the server on port 80 http://adam.no-ip.info:8080 will go to the server on port 8080.

Ace: Surely you jest! <grin>
Just joking; I never take serious issue with typos due to my on prediliction for them.
