Have a server at http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8000 and want http://myname.mydomain.com:8000
Basically, I have a DVR system with a local IP address of 192.168.1.175 serving http web access on port 8000. So, locally, I can view the DVR on http://192.168.1.175:8000 but I want to be able to do it remotely.
I already have set up port forwarding on my router and our ISP allows serving.
I want to be able to have http://mydvr.mydomain.com:8000 point to http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8000 where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is our public, static IP address.
I know it has to do something with DNS. Our domain is with www.1and1.com and I just don't know what DNS settings to set up. There's A, C, ANAME, and other crap (obviously I'm not too good with DNS).
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!
