Apache vs. Router vs. Port Fowarding

[Matt_Linux]

Hi all, quick question which has probably been beaten to death on this forum...

- Using Red Hat 8.0 and Apache
- Router is a Netgear RP614
- I have assigned the Linux box to 192.168.0.5
- Have assigned HTTP port fowarding to that IP on port 80, in the router admin screen.

I am on ATT @ Home cable service...

I'm trying to access my server without purchasing a Domain name, and jsut using TCP/IP.

Would my IP address to access the server be the WAN IP (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) PLUS :80 (the port fowarding to the HTTP server)

e.x. http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80

is that right?
Any tips on setting up a web server using ATT cable service?

Thanks!

All you should need is to type the IP address into a brower. This is assuming ATT doesn't block port 80.
