Not able to access public WAN IP from internal LAN
-
I have a website hosted on a server in the DMZ that utilizes host headers. When I try to go to www.website.com DNS returns the public IP (naturally), and I cannot get to the website…it simply says "The connection has timed out". However, if I add a host entry into my workstation with the DMZ IP address, it works.
Is there a way to get the website to work with the public ip? It works when I'm off-site, no problem.

This may help.
