Hello. I've just switched my home network from wireless router > cable modem, to win2k3 server as DC, DNS, DHCP and NAT. Basically set up a windows domain and everything I need to use the server in place of my wireless router.

I've got every thing working very well with one execption. I also host a website. I've got port forwarding working and my DC machine is sending requests on port 80 on to my webserver. But with my old set up I was able to visit the site from within my home network as well as outside. Now I can't get to the site from inside.

I'm pretty new to this stuff, but does anyone have any idea what could be different about my new set up that would cause this to happen? Any suggestions on how to fix it? Thanks.

-Scott

so you can access the site from outside your network but not from within it? Can you access it internally by ip address or using full local domain name?

call your ISP if they support port forwarding

Try to ping the web server from other internal computers, see whether there is firewall blocking on that web server.

Also there must be a route for your internal computers to reach that web server. If they have same gateway IP, then this should not be a problem.
