    Setting up a server for external access can be challenging, but here's a simplified guide:

    Domain Binding:

    Ensure your server has a static IP address.
    Go to your domain registrar's website where you bought the domain.
    Find DNS settings or Domain Management.
    Create an A (Address) record pointing to your server's IP.
    Router Configuration:

    Access your router settings (usually via a web browser).
    Set up port forwarding for the specific port your server uses (commonly 80 for HTTP).
    Forward external requests on that port to your server's internal IP like hydrogen v6 executor.
    Firewall Settings:

    Adjust your server's firewall to allow traffic on the chosen port.
    Dynamic DNS (Optional):

    If your home IP is dynamic, consider using Dynamic DNS services for a hostname that auto-updates with your changing IP.
    Remember, security is crucial. Keep your server and router firmware updated, use strong passwords, and consider HTTPS. If the technical details are still challenging, seeking help from someone tech-savvy or a professional might be beneficial.
