The router cant connect to itself (ip public)
HI.
I have a domain name like..... mydomain.com pointing to my ip public.
The router have a port fordwarding pointing to the server (192.168.0.166:6875).
In my internal network i have a server with several services.
One of the services need a domain name to work properly. So, i config that service with the adecuated domian name and port. Like mydomain.com:6875
if i try to reach that service from OUTSIDE my network, i can!!!works perfect!!!
but.................. if i try to reach that service from INSIDE i cant. I mean, it is like if the router cant connect to itself in the ip public.
What i can do to fix this?
By the way, my router is very limited (is the router of the internet company), does not have NAT LOOPBACK.
There is a way i can bypass this problem?
Thanks.

Did you try to use eg. /etc/hosts to resolve the public domain to the LAN IP?
(If you're using a local DNS, you can also handle that there)
