I am going to try and configure things correctly to a specific point. Here goes it:



I have a website: https://www.xxxxx-xxxxx.org and I am currently trying to
get it to show online and not just on my home network.


I have been to my website provider, i.e. the co. that I purchased this site from currently.



...



At the provider, I made a CNAME and an A record. I pointed the A record to my IP Address and the CNAME record to my website.



I set up Ubuntu-Server to use the ssh key from a company for https on port 443. I also have this working on my home server/home network but the Apache2 server is not allowing me to view this website outside of my network.



...



In the router config, I set up Port Forwarding instead of DHCP.



So, this is what is odd to me. Everything works but not on your end. It only works on my end on my network.



Seth



P.S. If you need any additional info, although it is frowned up, please contact me.



...



I have apache2 installed and running correctly. I can see my site online on my network. It is a simple HTML page for now.



...



/etc/apache2/sites-available/xxxx.xxxx.conf is the file I am in and configuring. This file gives access for me to install my .ca-bundle file, my .key file, and my .crt file. SSL encryption is a big deal these days to me and I would like to figure out how to make Ubuntu-Server work w/ Apache2 and an online website. I have followed all steps in the Ubuntu-Server guide, which can be found here at https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/index.html.en, except for the Bind9 section. Should I listen to the steps for Bind9?
