I have installed and enabled KF webserver on my computer here. It is working fine.
I use it for storing images and documents to share with others and Forums. My problem is when I right click the images to copy image location, I am provided with my internal LAN IP URL.
http://192.xxx.xxx.xxx/
This is not what I need to provide external boards and users access to my server. If I do use it, my image does not appear on the bulletin board for the rest but I can see it here!
I need the external WAN IP to be encoded in the image so when I right click it and save image location, I see my external url:
http://82.xxx.xxx.xxx/ etc. Incidentally, when I do this the image posts to the bulletin board but does not show on the board for me! Not that that really matters as I can see the image on my second browser screen.
It is irritating and time consuming to correct for each image I wish to have accessed from outside! I can alter my address to my external WAN URL, and I have done so. It then works fine.
Is this an issue with Windows or with the KF webserver? I have tried Abyss with identical results, other than KF is a speedier and better package to use.
I am on 512K ADSL. broadband XP3200, 1GB ram. Windows XP home. with all patches etc installed. My ADSL modem is a Zoom X4 model 5551 and a net Lynx 8 post router.
Has anyone have an idea how I can get round this problem??
