Port Forwarding through BT Business Hub 5 to WebDav Server to Remote Mount a Drive / Directory

 

Apologies if this has been covered already, however I have done a brief search and am new
to the forum.

 

I have a static IP (eg 82.122.144.35) and have completed Port Forwarding (149 to 80 on 10.8.0.1) through my BT Business Hub 5 to a Web Dav server on my LAN.

 

For the purposes of security I haven't used the exact details.

 

So, if I type http:\\10.8.0.1 on my Lan I get my internal web page, great.

 

If I type http:\\82.122.144.35:149 on an external machine (ie any computer outside my internal network), I also get the web page. So far so good.

 

If I run a command 'net use V: http:\\10.8.0.1' on my LAN I can mount the root directory of the WebDav Server, again as expected.

 

Also, if I run 'net use V: http:\\82.122.144.35:149' on my LAN it also mounts the root directory of the WebDav.

 

However if I run 'net use V: http:\\82.122.144.35:149' on any external computer (ie any computer outside my internal network), it returns 'System error 67 has occurred. The network name cannot be found.'

 

Any assistance would be gratefully received.
