Hi,
Hi.
I recently moved from Mumbai to Kolkata, where I have a fiber network connection who provided me with a private IP address for my machine. My local IP is 172.17.177.88 and the public IP is 45.250.245.79. My desktop is connected to a Wi-fi router with a DHCP host, which provides a IP to my desktop 192.168.1.46.
Is the private IP 172xxx accessible from outside? If not, first that part has to be done if you want to run web based services. You might have to talk to your fiber provider. The internal routing in the WiFi router is then tuned accordingly IMHO.
If I want to run a web server and mail server namely Apache and postfix on my machine, how do I configure my machine? Not running the machine 24/7 will be a problem?
I run Fedora 32 64 bit GNU/Linux on my machine. Please let me know if any more information is required to answer my question.
I will be thankful for any pointers which I can read to understand the complexities. -- https://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
