Why to setup a dns server
When you configure the Airport Base station, you can set it to do port mapping (not port fowarding) on port 80 or any other port to allow a machine from the outside to access to a machine on the lan on this port. So anybody can access to to your domain mydomain.dyndns.org from the outside. Buy when you want to access to mydomain.dyndns.org from a machine behind the Airport Base Station (on the wlan), you can't because there ise no reverse mapping on NAT. And this is often the case with NAT router. So why not to access to the machine with the internal ip if you are on the wlan ?
Why to setup a dns server
I'm still confused. If what you just said makes any sense, your original explanation must have been wrong. In your original, you said you couldn't see your dyndns domain name from OUTSIDE. But now, it sounds like you were having trouble seeing it from inside.
Why to setup a dns server
Outside can see my domain name but not my users on the lan. So I decide to install a DNS server that to set internal ip to access to my domain. So this is easy to laptop users to configure their connection. |
