Firstly, apologies for the cross post, but this issue is getting really frustrating.
I'm developing a website at the moment and all was working well until I decided to test remotely. From the local box, or other machines on the internal LAN, I can get at all pages. I have my router forwarding port 80 to the web server and if I enter the
full internet address for accessing the web page, all is well. I've created a page in case anyone wants to see for themselves.
Does anyone have any ideas? I've tried playing with http redirection, etc but no luck so far. It seems odd that the internet IP Address works, but not the web forwarded one, which should be just replacing the domain name with my IP address

Hi,
Firstly, apologies for the cross post, but this issue is getting really frustrating.
I'm developing a website at the moment and all was working well until I decided to test remotely. From the local box, or other machines on the internal LAN, I can get at all pages. I have my router forwarding port 80 to the web server and if I enter the full internet address for accessing the web page, all is well. I've created a page in case anyone wants to see for themselves.
e.g. http://86.16.243.2/welcome.aspx
I also have a domain name registered that forwards to my IP Address, but if I enter that address, I can't see any aspx pages
e.g. http://www.titanic-collector.co.uk/welcome.aspx
If I open a plain html page however, i can see it fine
e.g. http://www.titanic-collector.co.uk/default.htm
Does anyone have any ideas? I've tried playing with http redirection, etc but no luck so far. It seems odd that the internet IP Address works, but not the web forwarded one, which should be just replacing the domain name with my IP address
thanks in advance
Bobby
