My network network has computers with ip addresses 192.168.0.xxx with
255.255.255.0 subnet mask. One of the internal computers on network is
visible to outside world at the fixed ip address. The D-Link DI624
router routes the traffic from outside world to the lan computer for
specific ports. I can access this local computer with 192.168.0.100
addrerss. I can access the computer whenever I am outside office
using the 'outside world' address. However, I want to access it with
the same 'outside world' address from inside lan. How do I configure
my windows XP computer so that all requests to the 'outside world'
address are directed to my local network, and I get consistent access
to the computer from inside or outside the office? I have only 1
fixed IP address assigned to my office and would like a network
configuration solution without any other hardware/service additions.
Are you referring to remote desktop, perchance? You haven't described what
'access' means - nor which ports are in use.
Are you using AD, and/or do you have an internal DNS server?
I do find this an odd request (and I would use the computer's name, not its
IP address, internally - as well as using an A record for my public DNS that
pointed at the correct public IP, for external access). Is it just for ease
of use?
