Re: How to make Apache webserver accessible from outside?

[nksahita@softhome.net]

Nope xyz.dyndns.org is not actual domain name.  The actual domain name is 
nksahita.dyndns.org which is down at the moment (my home computer is down at 
the moment).  I will get it up in next few hours and then try out again. 

BTW, on related subject - is there any way to test if my webserver is 
accessible from elsewhere without asking someone's help to test?  The way I 
do right now is to change my settings and then call my friend to help to see 
if he can access my website from his computer. Is there any better way of 
testing this? 


TIA.
