ownCloud Routing

It was because I had it in my hosts file. I had to remove it from my hosts file at home so I could access it externally.

Ah, if you are going to put it into your host file, you have to put it in and take it out depending on where you are. Put it into DNS so that you don't have to manually manage that.

Did you put in the local IP in your local DNS?

This is very important, you can't skip this step.

I asked you yesterday if you did this, you said that you had it resolving correctly. It's been many times that we've stated how important this step is. I even made a point of pointing out it could not be skipped. And... it was skipped.

And you question why i get tired of helping?

I get paid to give the help that I freely give here.

At least when clients are not listening to me I can continue to bill them.

I did put it in my internal DNS yesterday. But it was also in my host file. I forgot that I had it in both places

WHAT did you put in your internal DNS. You were told to put the internal IP in your internal DNS. It sounds like you put the external IP in your internal DNS.

Answer the damned questions.

Then why is internal DNS not working today? Give us nslookup outputs rather than vague descriptions that lack the critical details.

You need to check your internal DNS and make sure that your internal DNS is set to use the internal IP address of your ownCloud server.

After you make this change clear the Cache on your internal DNS server, as well as run ipconfig /flushdns from an elevated command prompt (assuming you are in Windows)
