Host Name On Mac

[Ricky Smith]

Alright well last week I setup my mac to run plesk 8 and setup a entry in the host config so i could use the server without a public IP. Well now I have a public IP address and I was wondering how i would go about setting up the server so I can finally run my site off of it.

What do I have to change in hosts config and in plesk right now when I go to http://PUBLICIP:8443 it fowards me to PowerMac.local:8443 or when i try to visit it from http://rickysmith.net:8443 it does that

Via the domain its only accesable from the machine and its not working to the out side world it gets a page cant not be found error.
