Am I right to assume that after I forward the port 80 from router to the web server. Anyone on the internet will be able to see my webpage?

Any special configuration I need to set on the Apache server? Where do I set my dns, ip address, hostname etc so that Web user only need to type my domain name  instead of my ip address to come to my website.

I'm also worried about security issue. Any advice on what I can do on the server before I connect it online?

Hi yurisk

I am trying to configure my Cisco DSL Router using the IOS command line.
When I login the first time,  I was asked to login with the default username and password cisco which will expire after i finish my session. I was then ask to change my username and password using the following command
'username  <myuser> privilege 15 secret 0 <mypassword>'
So I enter the command
"enable" to enable the privilege commands and enter the command above.

However I got the error "Invaild input detected at '^' marker.
The '^' was pointing to the word 'username'.

Seems like my IOS do not recognise this command.
Is there anything I need to set to enable this command?
