Your Wifi Lan have DNS, you may configure host name there so you can access
via host name and not memorize ip

Thanks very much, that seems to work.
I added "www.myserver.com" to the line starting 192.168.2.5.


My home firewall (pfsense) runs a local DNS caching resolver (unbound), 
and I can add IP-name overrides to it via the web UI... I dislike 
putting stuff in /etc/hosts as its so 'out of sight, out of mind'

Why not put mydomain.com 192.168.whatever in your /etc/hosts file?  No need to 
run a dns server to hard-code one single lookup like that.

It is a public IP address.

I guess there could be a way of organizing what I want through shorewall,
which I am running on my home server?

I'm not running my own DNS server,
and would prefer not to.

I'm not quite sure what "dual-homed" means.
The machine on which httpd runs has a fixed IP address.
Is there any way this machine could be accessed on the local LAN
through this IP address, rather than 192.168... ?

I'd rather not run a DNS server on my machine.
I tried this some years ago, and ran into trouble.

are you also running your own DNS at home?   is this httpd server 'dual 
homed' and have a NIC on both the internet side and your local LAN ?


you could run split DNS, so on your LAN, mydomain.com is 192.168.x.x 
while on the internet, mydomain.com is the actual IP address.

My CentOS-7 home server has a static IP address.

Is there a simple way of organizing the hpptd server
so that it is accessible through this address at a remote host,
but is accessed at its 192.168 address by a laptop on the WiFi LAN?


Is the static IP address that you mention public or private?

You could use Limit statements in apache or iptables firewalling to do 
this.

[CentOS] Alternative IP addresses

2016-02-15 Thread Timothy Murphy 
My CentOS-7 home server has a static IP address.

Is there a simple way of organizing the hpptd server
so that it is accessible through this address at a remote host,
but is accessed at its 192.168 address by a laptop on the WiFi LAN?
