Remote Access to Owncloud Server
- by John
I'm currently trying to setup my own own-cloud server, and I've got it fully installed, configured, and accessible from within my own local network. I cannot figure out how to access it from the outside. So far I've:
Successfully setup port-forwarding on my local router.
I've done so via 'single port forwarding' and 'port range forwarding'
Ports 80, 443, 3306 (Apache-Full and MySQL)
Successfully obtained my external IP address.
I've also tested this magic number from within the network at #insertIPhere/owncloud and it did work.
Successfully setup the server using SQLite
Successfully setup the server using MySQL
Created the following exceptions in my firewall:
Allow In Port 80 (Apache Full)
Allow In Port 443 (Apache Full)
Allow In Port 3306 (MySQL)
Tried connecting from several different remote networks, as to troubleshoot something on their end
As far as trying to access it, I'm doing so through Google-Chrome and Mozilla Firefox trying to reach the server through #insertIPhere/owncloud using the above public IP address.
So what have I missed, and how do I access my server from outside?
Thanks in advance for your help and time, and I apologize in advance for what will probably result in my noobish mistake in networking.
I've looked at the official documentation. And also this question here.
