        Hi

        This is not exactly DHCP issue but I will help you anyway.

        First you must insert NAT.
        Firewall: NAT: Port Forward
        If Proto  Ext. port range NAT IP             Int. port range Description
        WAN TCP   80 (HTTP)       [Your Win Server IP]  80 (HTTP)         HTTP External

        Then insert rule: Firewall: Rules (WAN)
        Proto Source Port Destination               Port       Gateway Schedule Description
        TCP         *         * [Your Win Server IP]  80 (HTTP)  *                   HTTP External

        This settings will open external WAN port 80 for all external connections.

          Thank you for your response,

          Is this using pfSense?

            That is the procedure for forwarding web traffic from your WAN IP to the private IP of your web server.
            The DNS part of this would be to create an A record, such as www.domain.com pointing to the public IP.

            I'm obligated to mention that running a public web page on your Windows domain controller is a bad idea.

              I just want to use my domain in my own server. My server would be dedicated for live streaming and video streaming thru Flash Media Server. I want to be able to use my domain for exp: rtmp://MYDOMAIN/APPLICATION/INSTANCE and give my domain to the clients in set of the IP address, I will not host a web site in my server. So what I need is instruction in how to acomplish this, in how to host my own domain in my own server.

              Thank you for the feedbacks.
