    i have set up a pmmp minecraft server and port forwarded and putted a domain name on it.
    but i can connect via my home network via the domain name, but my friend can't.
    does someone know why

    --server is running on a old optiplex computer with ubuntu 20.0

    Then it is clearly not port forwarded. I hope that you didn't just edit hosts file in your operating system. Did your friend tried connecting with your external ipv4 address?

    The server is running as a systemctl service

    i found the problem, on the port forward setting the external ip was not set to 0.0.0.0
