Thanks, for the reply.  I had to change the $wgServer in my LocalSettings.php file to the IP address of my router's external IP address.  It was set to the IP address of my wiki machine (192.168.0.117).  I can now access the wiki from the internet. There are some other settings that probably need to be changed as well (e.g. $wgPasswordSender, $wdEmergencyContact)).  Now that I know what to look for, I should be able to figure that out. Thanks again,

Eric

Try just port forwarding 80 and 443

I have wiki up and running on my home network.  I can access the wiki on the LAN side of the router.  I cannot access wiki from the external (Internet) side of the router.  I have redirected (using virtual server settings in the D-Link router) ports 80 and 443 to my machine running the wiki.  When trying to access from Internet, I get a timeout error.  I can access the Apache web server from the internet on the same machine, so I thought it should work. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
