Ok, so, there are multiple things you should be aware.
First of all you’ve set that DNS to be 10.0.0.41
, that range of IPs is reserved for lan, similar to 192.168.0.41
would be. Only people in the same local network as you might be able to access it.
Also, usually your home router doesn’t use the 10.x.x.x range, but some ISPs might do it in their internal network, which means your router doesn’t get an internet IP, instead your ISP router does and it shares the same external IP with different houses, so you would need to use something like www.whatsmyip.org to know what your external IP is.
But there’s more, since you don’t control that router putting that external IP in the DNS won’t work either.
You need to do something more complicated, I recommend you read on cloud flare tunnels for example.
And one final piece of advice, don’t share your urls with randoms on the internet, security by obscurity is not security and all, but publicly advertising your url is asking for trouble, even without doing that you will see several attempts of logging into your servers constantly.
