Okay, here's the deal:

I have a windows compie and a linux compie connected to my Linksys WRT54G router. My linux box is a server, and my IP is dynamic, so I have to use the No-IP client.

I installed the client on my linux box, but it only has the Ubuntu base system and development packages installed beacuse it's a server. Now I'm a n00b to linux, and I don't have a clue if No-IP installed correctly, or if it's running.

I read a tutorial on the No-IP site (link) and I gathered that I need to enable port forwarding- however, the tutorial doesn't seem to apply to my router. The only menu I could find in the configuration for the router was under the applications & gaming tab- anyway, I don't have a clue what to do.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks,
Karasu

Port forwarding is fairly easy to configure.

Go into your router's admin console, I run a Belkin now so I may be a little rusty but with Linksys I think its 192.168.1.1 ? or its .100

Go into the firewall settings of the router, I believe you want to click on the 'Security' tab and then 'Firewall' and uncheck the box for 'Block Anonymous Internet Requests' then go to the 'Applications & Gaming' tab then 'Port Range Forward'

From here its pretty stright forward, just put in a name for the application and the port range you want to forward and for the IP address put your server's address... Also as a side note, you should set up your server to be a static IP, becuase this will break if it were to get a new IP address from the Linksys DHCP somehow...

Alright, I think I'm -finally- close to getting this... this is what's in my networking file on my linux box:

CODE

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
       address 192.168.1.10
       netmask 255.255.255.0
       network 192.168.1.0
       broadcast 192.168.1.255
       gateway 192.168.1.1


This is what I have my router set to:

CODE

Application: HTTP
Ports: 80 ~ 80
Protocol: Both
IP: 192.168.1.1


But when I go to my No-IP address I get my router configuration page. Know what to do?

Thanks~

For your router, you should set the ip to 192.168.1.10. By putting it as 192.168.1.1, you are telling the firewall to forward requests on port 80 to the router's port 80 and not your computer's port.
