If you want "paulandcilla.homelinux.org" to be internet-facing, you
should have a dyndns ip address for it (as you have for
"homelinux.org") rather than a private, "192.168." one.

Neither I (nor Stan, nor anyone else) should be able to query a public
DNS database (for example Google's, with "dig @8.8.8.8
paulandcilla.homelinux.org") and get "192.168.10.2" as a result.
