So in other words, except for the webserver itself, none of the machines
on Your private net resolve the name filehole.shacknet.nu to its private
address 192.168.0.2.
Try to add "filehole.shacknet.nu 192.168.0.2" to these machines'
hosts file, i.e. /etc/hosts if UNIX, if NT/W2K C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRI-
VERS\etc\hosts.
It appears to me that it's those other private machines which - using
DNS - always will resolve your website as 64.55.105.9, 212.181.91.6,
but not 192.168.02. And how should they?
If You must use DNS, You will also have to run a private DNS cache
which resolves Your hosts to Your private addresses and forwards the
remaining DNS queries to real DNS servers.
