Do you have trouble accessing "samphire.demon.co.uk" from inside your network? My setup just doesn't seem to understand how to route from the inside to the inside. Any tips?
Now you mention it, I do but that is because the box isn't called samphire inside the LAN. It's called "kitchen" because that's where it lives so "kitchen.demon.co.uk" is fine.
While I can ping and traceroute my external IP, the Speedtouch does not appear to be reflecting my connections to the default server.
Since I have everything going through a default server anyway, I've just remembered I can use virtual ethernet interfaces. By configuring my internal box to also have my external IP, it can services those requests without bothering the Speedtouch.
ifconfig eth1:1 12.34.56.78 netmask 255.255.255.255
Problem solved, assuming eth1 and 12.34.56.78 are right for your setup!
Thanks for listening :-)
