Most likely because all pages below the initial one (index.html by
default) are link returned by the server as
http://{servername}/foo/bar/somepage.html
and if you have no DNS listing for {servername} then you will get the
message you stated. IE: Try placing a hosts entry on your computer that
lists {servername} with the correct INTERNAL IP address (in your case
192.168.1.15) and you will probably be fine. Also make sure that
{servername} is listed in the External DNS as belonging to the firewall so
that the port forward works correctly. Note that you CANNOT correctly
browse an internal portforwarded server by external name UNLESS you have
a DNS mapping override for the internal address (such as a hosts entry or
an independant internal DNS).
