Publicize Private Server
I have a Ubuntu web server, it is only running a text based terminal. I can access my website on my private IP address, which is 10.0.1.100, but how would I get it to be able to access it outside my network. I have an airport extreme, and the server is running linux server with OpenSSH enabled. I have the site on it already, I added it through ftp, but I can't access it from the computers public IP address, it gives me an error. How do I make it so that anyone can view it? I've tried port forwarding on my airport extreme, but it doesn't let me access the internet then.

you have to forward the port that httpd is running on. I don't know how it's stopping you from using the internet, but that is the necessary step to have it accessible.
if you're using it at home, just know that some ISPs block port 80.New to the internet, technical forums, or the hacker / open source community??
