DNS issue - Apache points to private I.P address

Hi,

So I installed Arch on a new box and have previously been able to run Apache on other Arch machines. This time, when I configured Apache, my domain name keeps pointing to my private I.P address 192.168.2.8 instead of my public address. I temporarily configured a DNS name on dyndns.org and the domain name is updated to point to the public address, not the private address. I'm using opendns servers which are obviously in my resolv.conf file. My hosts file has my loopback address and my private address such as 192.168.2.8   domain.homeip.net domain

My hosts.deny is only set to allow SSHD from specific I.P addresses which is fine. /etc/hosts.deny is set to deny all services but I don't see how this would be causing this DNS issue because it's worked before. If I ping the server or nmap it, I keep getting 192.168.2.8. If I modify my /etc/hosts file, port 80 points to my public I.P but is filtered. So no matter what I do, I'm having trouble. Is there anything I can try next?

Re: DNS issue - Apache points to private I.P address

One thing I did forget to mention is that port 80 is forwarded on my router devices to 192.168.2.8. I've had no issues forwarding apache through port 80 on 2 routers before.

It's solved ... had a minor setting that I forgot to set ... forgot to set the WAN address to set one of the router devices to point to the WAN address ..
