Hi Gary,

1. point your domain pointer to your staitc (external) IP
2. Set up your web server to use a fixed internal IP address that's not in the DHCP scope range from the router - eg 192.168.0.100, but that is still on the same subnet as the router (by default this is usually 255.255.255.0)
3. Set up your router to forward port 80 to your web server's fixed internal address.

Now all traffic coming to your router's external address on port 80 will be forwarded to your web server. It's pretty neat.

Cheers,

Andrew
