Hello from LaLa land, 

At least that's the way I feel when I'm trying to diagnose what's going on with this problem! 

I have an ActionTec Modem configured at 192.168.0.1.   It has a static IP Address and allows email to be received to my server, running behind the ActionTec.   When my (brilliant) ISP set things up, the system worked well.  We had the web server configured as 192.168.0.10 and PC's on the LAN could bring up websites hosted on my webserver. 

I have since changed the server's IP to 192.168.0.2 just to experiment to see if the .10 was causing a problem (speed issues, primarily).  

For config changed, I changed network config, the httpd.conf file, and DNS entries for PC's that access that server for secondary DNS. 

The whole system seems to be running a LOT faster, for an unexplained reason, which is good, but now I when I enter any domain name hosted by the server, whether I am at the server or at a PC on the LAN, what is I get is the ActionTec Admin screen.   

In httpd.con, I changed the virtual host addresses for all hosted domains, and the NamedVirtualHost address, but still no luck.   I also changed the port forwarding addresses in the ActionTec modem.   From 192.168.0.10 to the .2  

Folks on the WAN side CAN bring up web pages, send emails, etc. It's just the PC's on the LAN side that bring up the ActionTec's menu when I try to access a locally hosted domain.   

Any Ideas?   
TIA,
Andrew Lietzow
In Des Moines, where the weather has finally taken a turn toward winter, just in time for Christmas.  So, Merry Christmas!
