I created a IIS site in my windows server 2012 virtual machine. I want to be able to access it online on my android phone. I can access it locally on the server. The ip address of the server is 199.86.19.2 and for the IIS site its 192.168.113.133. Also the server is a dynamic ip. I have tried using an online site called noip.com to make a domain. I created a domain
mydomain.no-ip.biz and gave it the ip address 192.168.113.133. I even installed the client program so it keeps my ip up to date. However when I visit mydomain.no-ip.biz. it says it cannot be found.
Does anyone know what is wrong here?
Thanks.
192.168.113.133 is your local IP address on your network. 199.86.19.2 is your external IP address that your IPS assigned to your server (until it expires). I'm assuming you are doing this at home so you would need to make sure if you have a router, you need to configure it to set it up to port forward to your local IP address.
Set your 'mydomain.no-ip.biz' ip address to 199.86.19.2 and make sure your router (if you have one) is forwarding to 192.168.113.133.

I have windows 2008 R2 server. It is located behind a firewall called Fortigate.
I need to access an application on local iis from outside.
I opened a free account on cloudflare for this. I forwarded the A record of localsite.mydomain.com to my own ip address.
I opened a port in Firewall and forwarded it to my server.
My aim is only to be able to access the port on the server from localsite.mydomain.com, other than that, by typing the ip address, port scanning programs and so on. I don't want it to be accessed.
I thought of typing the cloudflare ip address from the server's firewall, but the cloudflare ip address is constantly changing. How can I do it?
I've created a node.js app. When it runs my mobile phone can connect to it using address 192.168.1.5. In other words, when I open a browser on my phone and enter 192.168.1.5 I get a welcome page served by the app running on my PC.
The problem is that the IP address is not human friendly. Is there a way to access my app by an alias? For example, http://myapp or something like this?
Yes, these aliases are provided by the domain name service (DNS). You need to set up a hostname on DNS to point to your machine's local address.
Put that IP address into a DNS server.
Here's a free way to do that.
Create a FreeDNS account by visiting https://freedns.afraid.org/
Click on Subdomains.
Click the Add link.
Create a subdomain hostname under one of FreeDNS's public domains. Maybe mydev.manidos.mooo.com is a good choice
Put your machine's IP address into it.
Then, use https://mydev.manidos.mooo.com to hit your development machine's nodejs app.
You can pay FreeDNS to register your own domain name and use that if you prefer.
There are all sorts of other ways to register a domain and then add address records to it, to translate from hostnames to IP addresses.
Edit If you were connecting to and from your desktop / laptop machine, you could add a hostname to your hosts file. The hosts file is itself a little DNS registry that's local to your machine. On windows it's at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. On *nix and mac it's at /etc/hosts.
But, you are connecting to your app from a mobile device. Editing the hosts file in a mobile device is unreasonably difficult.
After publishing and hosting my asp net site to IIS server I am facing a problem with change of IP Address of the computer that I hosted the site on. Every time the computer on/off a new IP Address is given to the computer and I can't access the site unless I changes the binding of the site to the newly given IP Address. I tried changing the IpV4 to use static IP Address, this time the site works but I can't access the internet. How can I make the site work with the DHCP given IP Address with out changing bindings every time after on/off???
I make a web site to my local. I set bindings local.com and www.local.com. I add hosts xml to
127.0.0.1 local.com
127.0.0.1 www.local.com
So, I can connet on my pc like
local.com,
www.local.com,
192.168.1.35
But another pc on my network can't conenct with friendly name
www.local.com,
local.com,
But same pc can connet with ip
192.168.1.35
How can that another pc connect with friendly name ?
IP Addresses are the numerical identification for each device on a computer network.
Named Addresses invented, because remembering each device Address's turned to a difficult job.
So someone must know's which names must be converted to which IP Address.
DNS Servers are responsible to do this translation. But you done that locally. Actually you don't have a DNS Server on your local System, So you can't tell to others that "WWW.Something.COM" is my Address.
If you didn't connected to the internet, you must establish a DNS Server or done this task manually in all clients:
https://helpdeskgeek.com/networking/edit-hosts-file/
Running a DNS Server is another task. you can search for DNS Server applications like https://simpledns.com/ or you can setup a DNS Server using Windows Server. for both scenarios you need to tell to your clients to add your DNS Server Address to their network Adapter settings.
or If you are connected to the Internet, you can Use a NoIP to register a free Address:
https://www.noip.com/
you then need to download an application (In Noip.com) to monitor IP changes, it will monitors your IP address and it changes and then tells to NOIP.com to translate your address into your current IP address.
Actually NOIP will registers your address globally around the Internet network and each one who can access to the internet is able to reach to your address.
I've successfully installed Team City 9.1.3 on a Win2k12 R2 server. I can get to TC by going to http://localhost:8080 - all works as it should and no issues.
However, I would like to access TC from any browser within my company. I don't want to remote desktop just to get to TC, so I followed the instructions Here, but I cannot get to TC through my domain. My domain is http://teamcity and is bound to a 10.* ip address since I don't want it public. I do get a reply when I ping "teamcity." Should it be a public ip?
The server is a fresh VM I created yesterday and there are no other sites on it. The server is on the domain and I can remote desktop into it.
Is there anything I need to do to associate http://teamcity or the ip address with the server?
As a test, I associated the default web site in iis with the new domain and ip address. If I navigate to either the ip address or the domain in a browser on the server, it does not take me to the default web site. Nor does that work if I do the same from my desktop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Update:
Sys Admin fixed the issue. The ip was not bound to the server. As soon as he fixed that issue, everything is working as it should now.
