Right, all at home. I have Pound configured (like on my workhorse), not apache. But how do I determine the IP address of the server? I've never set that up before. What file do I edit?

Can you tell us more about your home set-up? Presumably you have some sort of router doing NAT and DHCP? Tell us about it.

All I need is something like this:
123.456.78.90:8080/example_site
so I can look at said site.

If you don't know IP address of your internal server, than chances are that it was assigned via DHCP by your router. For what you want to do, you should probably reconfigure the server with a specific internal IP address instead of having it assigned.

Assuming that I've guessed correctly about your set-up:
First find out from your router what the the range of the "DHCP pool" is. Look at the DHCP configuration on your router. Then pick an address that is NOT in that range but still part of your local network. Then use sysinstall on your FreeBSD box to give it that IP address.

Many of the details depend on details of your set-up which I don't know, so it is hard to be more specific.

Cheers,
