Change my links? All pointing to private IP address

Hi,
I have managed to get my moodle visible to the outside world , http://212.248.244.28/moodle
However if from the outside world you click any links it fails to work as they point to a private ip 10.132.53.212.
Can anyone suggest where I need to alter this in moodle as it has been a while since I installed it and my brain in like a seive!

Thanks

Sorry,
I was having a bad day.
I just had to edit the config.php with the new address.


Thanks

Hi Reg,

You may be able to advise me. I had moodle visible on the internet, but I was on a dial up. I have since gone broadband, and acquired a static ip address. However, the address is for my wireless router. I reckon I must configure a pinhole in the router to point at moodle. Problem is, what port number do I use? I guessed at 80, but the router wouldn't accept it.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Matt

Hi Matt,
I'll be honest and say I don't know.

Hi Reg,

Thanks anyway, I got sorted. Was able to point my router at the private ip address of the machine where moodle was installed, and now all is visible on the internet.

Regards,

Matt
