i was setting up the joomla bridge to gallery2 when it started giving me a hassle about finding the gallery site. both are run on the same server(apache). anyways i looked in the embed.php in the gallery2 folder and to test i put in an echo to show the $remotehost and $localhost right before the if(). well the IPs do not match. the $remotehost is set to my routers IP and the $localhost is set to my internet connection IP. yes my router is configed to route port 80 and all that, ive been running this webserver for a few years with no problems far as IPs go. i access the site via a .com domain name that is pointed to my home IP(its static) so i access joomla and gallery2 both via this domain.com address.
is there some way to modify the embed.php so its still secure. or there something im missing someplace that the IPs are different?
oh, i access the embed.php directly to get the IPs echo test.

well, the way i fixed, or atleast got around it, was to connect to the admin panel by http://localhost/administrator/ then it got the settings just fine. and now it works fine when i use the domain.com to view the frontend on joomla.
