please help me urgently.

I’m trying to configure my own web server, I want to have the ability to host various domains for my clients.
so I have bought the following:
1- one Static IP from my ISP in Egypt 197.162.233.244
2- one PC ( dell workstation 690 )
3- domain name (rms4design.info) (registered by name.com)

Notes:
Static IP from Internet supply provider for the router (197.162.233.244)
Static IP for the internal network itself is (192.168.1.27)
I configured my router (NAT) for port forwarding to the internal static IP
I registered my NameServer ( ns1.rms4design.info , ns2.rms4design.info ) with my static IP (197.162.233.244)

then I have done the following:
1- I enabled the ports on the router ports.
2- I installed and configured my server to host sites as illustrated in this link 3- After installation, I have tested my static IP and it has directed me to the default page as you see (working from the server itself and from any other PC)
4- then, I have tested the ISPConfig ( the host manager ) and it has also worked successfully (working from the server itself and from any other PC)
5- then, I have tested the ISPConfig ( the host manager ) and it has also worked successfully (working from the server itself BUT NOT working from any other PC)
6- then, I have registered my DNS ns1, ns2 on name.com via (rms4design.info) as illustrated in this link 7- then, I have connected the ISPconfig (host manager) with the domain and added the A , MX , CNET records to the ISPConfig as illustrated in this link and added the ns1 , ns2 to the domain name itself
8- I have logged in to my ISPconfig and created my first webpage and connected it to the same domain ( rms4design.info )
9- I have waited for more than 48 hours

some information about my server configuration

as you see the problem now , that it’s not working till now well

please help me if their is something wrong

I’m waiting your help urgently
 

I want to have the ability to host various domains for my clients.

Hopefully you mean only for testing purposes, because you will not be able to run multiple websites on a domestic ADSL line.

The data transfer rate of the outgoing connection is not sufficient for anything more than very lightly used website. It is your UPLOAD speed that is used for outward connections such as webservers or email servers.

The other thing, which is probably more important is, do you know how to secure an email server from being attacked and getting used by spammers to send tens of thousands of messages through?

thank's for your reply

let's say that i can protect them , and i have the suitable ADSL speed

i just want to make it work

so help me in making it working NOW
 
Ok first of all 'shouting' NOW won't get you anyone's attention. In fact it's more likely to get you ignored.

Take note of the wording underneath the TT logo!

thanks for your help

so how can i make it work !!!!

my domain name registered on name.com

and i followed the instructions in these link
and as you see in those pictures i have created them in the domain panel

without any records in the domain panel

then i have connected it with ISPConfig as you see

what can i do more !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Pasting the same links is NOT going to help. Until the root DNS servers can actually communicate on port 53 with your server nothing is going to work.

I agree with ChrisHirst, the first thing you need to do is correct your name server behavior. When I try to do a simple nslookup on rms4design.info it completely times out, which means that your site will not be accessible. Based on this, I am wondering if you have your domain and the parent name servers even properly registered? How can you make it work? This is a good question, but like I said, it appears that you have a root, registration problem. A whois lookup on the domain says that NS1.RMS4DESIGN.INFO and NS2.RMS4DESIGN.INFO are the primary name servers, but they either don't exist or don't respond. Are these servers you run or are they by the provider?

Secondly, I notice that what you mention seems to be working / not working is anything with names in it, which harkens back to your main DNS problem. One other thing to consider is that it looks like you want to use sub domains, such as [/b]server1[/b].rms4design.info. You need to make sure that you have records for these sub domains too.
