Internal / External IP problem

The real problem in this case is the software that I'm using, it's called Gallery and is a PHP photogallery. Now I don't use a domain because it's really a private site. The webserver is NATed in my router so that it responds to the external IP. The problem is that in order for gallery to work you need to specify the server adress. So to get it to work for outside users, I put the external adress in. Gallery uses that information to build links, so when I try to access gallery from within the network using the internal adress, it won't work since I can't access it using the external adress.

So I think I have to fool my windows box that my external adress is the same as the servers internal. Or give the server another adress that's the same as the outside. Or get a domainname, but I don't want to do that.

Confusing? Yes. Very. I think the gallery developers need to rework this part of the code to use relative paths instead.

Yea, the best solution is changes to the softare, but perhaps you could just use a free name from http://www.dyndns.org for now.
