hi all!!

I am Newbie in OpenACS and Servers

My situation is:

I need install OpenACS in a PC wich is in a Intranet so that it is in Internet.
I got from Admin of Network a IP 10.x.x.x Intranet and IP public 208.x.x.x
My actual intranet IP is 172.16.x.x
Also I have: gateway and DNS Address
I can run OpenACS in IP 172.16.x.x:8001 in my own PC.

My question is:

How I configure OpenACS in my PC for Internet?

Hi Daniel,

You need to port forward port 80 on your gateway/router to your internal address 10.x.x.x then in your $SERVICE_NAME/etc/config.tcl set your ip address to 0.0.0.0 (all interfaces). Do the same in your /etc/init.d script and restart aolserver. This assumes you are using a UNIX-like OS.

Does that help?
