O.P. no-ip + dd-wrt
i set them both up and now when you go to http://supersonicdarky.sytes.net/, it shows the router status. how do i set it up so that it loads a specific folder on on of the computers when you go to the url without any extra options (like ports url.com:123)?

RE: no-ip + dd-wrt
What you mean by folder? you wanna host a website or something on your pc?

Reason its probably showing th router status is because the router probably has web based interface that loads.

So you'll need to forward port 80 to you pc probably and your'll either need website running on yo pc or ftpvsite running. of which you pick wht ever folder you want to use for the website or ftp sites home folder.


that any help ?

Ftp Site (hit v instead of space)

You could install filezilla server http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/

Run it as ftp site on your pc. Just configure your router to forward port 21 to your pc.

then you would use ftp://supersonicdarky.sytes.net/ to access it. (i think been while since i done this on my own pc)

RE: no-ip + dd-wrt
you can run WAMP
http://www.wampserver.com/en/ use that as a web server.

Or you can setup iis6 on windows xp.

hope that helps :-)

RE: no-ip + dd-wrt
you should already have an HTTP server installed, called IIS. go to Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance > Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services to set it up.

I use Apache on my own computer to run my website. More secure then IIS. I have had many IIS hacking attempts on my server, so if you go that route, be sure to keep it updated with all security patches and updates if you are making the website public. If its only for local use then doesnt really matter

I highly recommend Apache2Triad. It's an apache package which includes Apache, PHP, MySQL, FTP, POP/SMTP server, and lot more.

Once it's installed on your computer there's a file you need to edit called 'default.conf' and change the default directory to be served, for example 'c:\webserver'.

Now you're computer is a webserver, you can test your own websites going to http://localhost/  or  http://127.0.0.1/ 

Just be sure to have port 80 redirected to your computer from your router.

"attempts", as in, unsuccessful? :p

btw, there have only been three IIS6 exploits in the last 5 years, and they've all been patched.
