Client can't connect to server from internet

Server: Vault 2017 Pro

 

Client: Vault 2016

 

 

The client can connect to the server in local network, but it fails from internet.

 

The error message is

 

Fail to call web service on xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

When this happens it's because the FQDN URL isn't being resolved to the internal IP address of the server.  Edit the Windows Hosts file which can be found here:

 

C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\

 

Then on a new line at the end of the file, press TAB, type the internal IP address of the server (by default its 127.0.0.1), then TAB again, followed by the FQDN URL.
