HTTP IP Syntax

[EmosOohay]

How is the IP address of a computer attached to a gateway specified.

For example if the gateway is 150.98.30.170 and the attached computer, named Felix, is 192.168.0.9 how is the IP address of Felix specified?

I've tried http://150.98.30.170/Felix/, http://150.98.30.170:Felix/ and others. All my guesses were incorrect.

I'd like to be able to address Felix over the internet from work.

Thanks for the help!

With this you can address individual computers over the Intrenet.

Thanks for the links, I'm studying some of the articles linked from the IPMonster page now.

Unfortunately the two pages don't answer my question, unless there is no answer because the IP syntax does not address this issue.

From the outside? You have to forward a port from the router to felix. Then, from the outside just type in: http://150.98.30.170ort

port being the port # you forwarded to felix.

EDIT: Stupid fusetalk :|

Can't be done. The 192.168.x.x address range is used because it's defined as a local and unroutable address so it's invalid on the internet. The way your Nat works is by tracking outgoing requests from your computer and using them to map the replies back to the right computer. If you want to be able to hit the computer from the outside you'll need to setup port maping which is really just a stactic association that anything coming in on that port goes to that computer.

Your example confuses me because of the tongue stuff. Could you retype it without the comedy?

I'll study up on port forwarding and maping though!


Thanks!

I didn't mean for it to be in there. It was a parsing issue. It should look fine now.

If you look at the Note 2 at page I direct you to, it suggested the exact same solution.

Whether you would like to use Windows Remoter Desktop or VNC it up to you. There is con and pros to either. VNC has smaller foot print, takes fewer resources, and is less intrusive to system then Remote Desktop. Remote Desktop is better in case of longer period more complex interaction.

The solution however is the same. I.e. installing it on each LAN?s Computer and assigning different ports. The ports are then use as the ID for each computer (Not http syntax).
