Cannot see Mac Mini Server from Internet: DynDNS alias gets thru cable modem to wireless router, not to the Mac Mini. How to configure?

I want to make my Mac Mini Server (Lion) visible to the Internet from my home LAN. I have followed the Lion server install wizards and also set up a dynamic DNS at DynDNS.com.
When I enter the Internet address with the proper alias from a web browser, I get dumped into the admin screen of the Linksys wireless router WRT300N. Hint: the WRT300N provides DHCP for the LAN, not the cable modem providing DHCP. The WRT300N has DDNS service set up. NAT and RIP are disabled. The Mac Mini DHCP is reserved.
Suggestions? I could use the Motorola Surfboard SB6121 to provide DHCP but have hesitations.
Point me to the right discussion/article and get me back on track, please.

This sounds like a simple port forwarding issue, but I don't understand your LAN setup.
The WRT300N has DDNS service set up. NAT and RIP are disabled.
The chances are, you're running NAT somewhere in your network. If not the WRT then what? If it's your cable modem then you must have port forwarding configured on the cable modem, and that's where you need to focus - change the port forwarding to point to your Mac Mini's address rather than the WRT.
HOWEVER, it is far more common to have the wireless router perform NAT and DHCP, which is why I question your setup.
Not directly related, but:
The Mac Mini DHCP is reserved
Nix this. Your server should be configured manually, with a static IP address, not DHCP, even with a reservation in the DHCP server. The only advantage of DHCP is for dynamic hosts (hence the 'D' in 'DHCP') or if you expect to change your entire local subnet on any kind of frequent basis. The reality is that you can't just change the IP address of Mac OS X Server like this - there are too many dependencies, so it's better to set it manually, knowing that there's a cost (and pain) to change the server's address.

    I ran into this problem too. The coding for RoboHelp X5 must

  • Can't connect to server from internet

    Hi
    I’ve just set up a new Mac mini server with Lion 10.7.1.
    It’s configured as "Host name for Internet".
    I can reach the router from Internet. NAT on the router is setup to forward the the required ports according to Apple’s document "Well known TCP and UDP ports used by Apple software products"
    Still I can’t connect to any service on the server from Internet (Address Book, Calendar, AFP, VPN)
    Please help!
    Asbjørn

    You can test it from outside with a telnet connection:
    Open Terminal.app (Applications > Utilities) and insert:
    telnet <ip-address-from-router> <port>
    so testing the iCal port would be:
    telnet 123.234.45.6 8008
    or SSL:
    telnet 123.234.45.6 8443
    When you get "Escape character is '^]'." the connection is established to the server/port.
    When you get " telnet: connect to address 123.234.45.6: Connection refused  |  telnet: Unable to connect to remote host" something is wrong with the setup.
    Maybe it's the Port-forwarding, maybe the setup of the server.
    Is it working in the local network?
    I also would recommend you, to NOT share AFP over the network! The traffic isn't secured in a single way! Instead just configure VPN and establish the AFP connection through that VPN tunnel, but not directly by opening that connection to the internet!

  • Cannot see EMC PowerPath devices from ASM instance on Solaris 10 x86

    Hello,
    I'm trying to use EMC PowerPath devices as ASM disks, but cannot see any usable disk
    from the ASM instance.
    My configuration:
    Hardware: Sun X4600M2
    Solaris 10 8/07 x86_64
    EMC PowerPath 5.0.2_b030
    Oracle 10.2.0.1.0
    The PP devices are /dev/rdsk/emcpower* which are softlinks to the correpsonding /devices/pseudo/emcp*.
    Since I know that these devices must have suitable permissions, I've set ownership and
    permission of e.g. /devices/pseudo/emcp@1:a,raw to oracle:dba and 660. The ASM instance's
    init.ora file has *.asm_diskstring='/dev/rdsk/emcpower*', so I assume it will scan all
    /dev/rdsk/emcpower* softlinks and fetch the ones with sufficient permissions. But nonetheless
    a 'select count(*) from v$asm_disk' gives me 0, i.e. nothing.
    I've just read some recommendations of using slice 6 of the disk with partition type 'usr', but
    this seems to me quite superficial. I would like to use simply slice (=partition) 0 starting from
    cylinder 1.
    I would be very glad for any solution.
    Best regards
    Udo

    Problem solved.
    After some tests with plain files instead of devices via undocumented parameter
    asmallow_only_raw_disks=false in order to check ASM functionality,
    I've finally created new node devices only for oracle (and set_asm_allow... back to true).
    original EMC PowerPath pseudo devices (e.g.):
    -bash-3.00$ ls -l /devices/pseudo/emcp@13:a,raw
    crw------- 1 root sys 215, 832 Dec 10 15:29 /devices/pseudo/emcp@13:a,raw
    corresponding new character device with proper ownership and permissions:
    -bash-3.00$ ls -l /u01/app/ora-dev/raw/emcp13a
    crw-rw---- 1 oracle dba 215, 832 Dec 10 14:56 /u01/app/ora-dev/raw/emcp13a
    With *.asm_diskstring='/u01/app/ora-dev/raw/emcp*' in ASM-instance's init.ora,
    I was able to see the devices via select * from v$asm_disk and could create the
    ASM diskgroups.

  • Cannot see data in BSO from transparent ASO partition

    I have 2 cubes: BSO (target) and ASO (source).
    BSO should show data from ASO corresponding element "Fact" from dimension "Scenario".
    I can see the data using ASO directly, but I cannot see data viewing it from BSO using transparent partition...

    Hi,
    When you have the data in the ASO( i.e source cube) ,it should reflect in the BSO ( i.e destination) . I am sure there is problem with the transparent partition ,you had created .Validate and share more info of error ( if you encounter during partition creatino) , that should be resourceful

    I purchased Lightroom from B&H Photo a few months ago.  I did not instal the software, because I was purchasing a new computer in the near future.  I am now purchasing that computer, but cannot find the software.  B&H suggested that I contact you directly to help me.  I have the receipt, and you can look to see that the program was never used.  It would be great if you could just send me another copy of the software.  Thank you very much.
    Marc

    Download from Adobe's website
    Win: Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows
    Mac: Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh
    Install then enter your serial number when prompted.
    I have the receipt, and you can look to see that the program was never used.
    The receipt is only of use to B&H. Adobe will have no record of it.
    If you quote an Adobe Lightroom serial number then Adobe can confirm if that serial number has ever been registered. That step should not be required at this stage though. Just install the software.

  • This past month I have been having problems connecting to my home wireless connection. Previously I had no problems whatsoever. I have tried unplugging the wireless router, turning off the wirless airport, deleting the network name from my list of server

    This past month I have been having problems connecting to my home wireless connection. I have a MacBook Pro OSX Version 10.6.8. Previously I had no problems whatsoever. I have tried unplugging the wireless router, turning off the wirless airport, deleting the network name from my list of servers and trying to reconnect this way. These methods have worked temporarily, but the same problem keeps coming back. Most of the time my personal wireless connection does not even come up among the list of available networks. My fellow flatmates have PCs and both of them are able to connect to the network without problem.
    The router is a d-link model DIR-615. I am not tech savy, so if any other information need to be provided in order to better understand my situation, please let me know.
    Please help me!

    If I open the list of networks in a window it says "connection timeout," but if I just select it from the drop down it tries for awhile and then stops with no prompt. When I try to run network diagnostics it says "sorry, we can't connect to the internet" (or some solution-free variation of that)

  • HT201263 when i follow the steps it does it but when it gets to itunes it says 'iTunes could not contact the iPhone software update server because you are not connected to the internet' but i am connected to the internet ..?

    when i follow the steps it does it but when it gets to itunes it says 'iTunes could not contact the iPhone software update server because you are not connected to the internet' but i am connected to the internet ..?

    Were you definitely connected to the internet at the time? If you don't have iOS 5 on your iPhone then the only way to update it would be via iTunes, once updated to the latest version of iOS you'll be able to update your iPhone without connecting to iTunes "over-the-air".
    Before updating however it goes without saying to Backup your iPhone, this should happen by default upon connecting your iPhone to iTunes.

  • Switched from DSL to CABLE. WRT54G Wireless Router stopped working.

    When I switched from DSL to CABLE, my WRT54G Wireless Router stopped working. I am not able to access the router page (192.168.1.1) Also, when I use the set up CD for re-installation, the wizard aborts in the middle saying it can not connect.
    I appreciate any help to resolve this problem.
    P.S. The router acts like a one-port wired router. 

    Here is my favorite method for resetting a router to factory defaults, and trying to get it working again.
    To reset your router to factory defaults, use the following procedure:
    1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
    2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
    3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
    5) Power down the router.
    6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
    7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
    9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out." If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
    10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank, and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
    If you get this far without problems, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
    If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is dead.
    If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. In this case, use the Linksys tftp.exe program to try to reload your router with the latest firmware. After reloading the firmware, repeat the above procedure starting with step 1.
    If you need additional help, please state your ISP, the make and model of your modem, your router's firmware version, and the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
    Please let me know how things turn out for you.

    Do you have Aperture installed? I found your model on a compatibility list; however, there was a note that it requires Aperture 2 to be installed:
    http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
    According to this excerpt:
    To see a list of digital cameras with RAW-format support that are compatible with iPhoto, visit this Aperture webpage (any camera compatible with Aperture, Apple’s advanced photo editing and management program, is compatible with iPhoto as well)
    which is at the bottom of this page:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iPhoto/9.0/en/pht41627265.html
    I may be wrong, but I interpret that info to mean you need Aperture 2 before iPhoto will work with RAW?

    She can choose to either enable the setting on her iPod to Manually manage music and videos.  With setting enabled she can sync content to her iPod from multiple computers without it affecting whats already stored her iPod. For more information on syncing content to an iPod manually see this article.
