But only from within the LAN, right? How Luis is able to use a
non-routable IP from outside the LAN is a mystery to me.
Yes, only from within the Airport local LAN.

I hope that's a typo. Do you really mean 10.0.2.210? If so, that's your
problem.
Typo??? No all of the nodes within the Airport LAN are 10.0.1.xxx. I can't even assign anything that's not a member of that subnet.
I host a site via an airport, though not an extreme. My DSL "modem" is set
to forward port 80 to 192.168.1.x, the internal IP of the cube, not the
airport's IP. Have you tried that? Presumably, when you connect the iBook
directly, your "modem" is set to the IP address of the iBook, right?
How did you set your DSL modem up to do that? The one I have, I got from my ISP, and it has no internal settings. It just bridges from the incoming phone line to the Ethernet. I have one static IP address for this modem / setup 207.213.217.244. I set up the Ibook such that it's built in Ethernet is set to that IP, and when I plug the Ethernet directly into the ibook, the ibook hosts a web page just fine. I can read it at www.bumala.com. When I plug the Ethernet into the airport, and try to host the page through the airport via it's internal LAN at 10.0.1.201, it doesn't work.
Thanks,
Bob.

> We just got DSL service in our area, and we now have a reasonably fast Ethernet connection with a static IP address. I'm trying to set up my cube to host a web site. So... I set the cube to a static local IP address of 10.0.1.201, enabled web sharing, and installed the web site. I checked it out by browsing 10.0.1.201, and the page displays just fine. I set up the airport extreme for port mapping sending port 80 to local IP 10.0.1.201 port 80. I also set the advanced settings to make 201 the default host. I got nothing. When I browse my static Ip address (207.213.217.244), it just times out.
> So, I hooked up the network directly to my Ibook, and browsed my static IP address, and it works just fine. So now I'm out of ideas. I checked the httpd logs and I noticed that I get traffic from all of the usual data miners (looking for robots.txt), and some I think trying to plant worms, but I can't seem to get through.
