I'm using the Netgear RT314 gateway router.  It specifically denies from
the LAN to the LAN via the WAN.  That is, you cannot access your server
from within your LAN  by using the public address.  This is a security
issue as I understand it.  In my own case, I can access my web server
(on koko) from etta (also on the LAN) by browsing to http://koko/.  From
outside, I must use the public address, http://rcu.dyndns.biz/.
