I've been working on getting Apache 2 up and running on YDL and am sort of
stumped with what I think is a network problem. I am running an ADSL modem
to a Linksys firewall and then to an 8 port hub to a home network. I've
installed Apache 2 and all seemed to go well. The problem is that I can
access the site locally through http://localhost/ or through
http://192.162.1.105/ but not through my IP address of
http://205.260.250.147/ . As well I can not access the site from anyother
box on my local network, only from the local box.
To ensure I have the port forwarding correct on the linksys i installed
tomcat on a 'windoze' box on the same network and it works fine when I do
the port forwarding and give the address http://205.206.250.147:8080/. I
then thought it might be Linux issue, so at work I installed Apache on a PC
with RedHat 9.0 linux and again did the port forwarding on the same model of
Linksys firewall and it worked fine! Just to be sure I installed Tomcat on
the same linux box and again on a windoze box and everything worked fine. I
swapped the Linksys boxes(work to home and home to work) and got the same
result i.e. works fine on Redhat, and Windoze but not on YDL.
I also tried various combinations in the Apache conf for the listener port
i.e.
*:80
80
localhost:80
205.206.250.147:80
192.168.1.105:80
etc. I then thought that there might be some sort of security on ports below
1024 and tried to listen on port 8000 but to no avail, I could still access
via the local box but not the WAN. I must admit that I'm not sure what to
try now. I can get out from the YDL box via mozilla surfing and can send
and receive mail just fine - I just can't access Apache from outside the
local box! I know through 'nmap -p 1-1024 localhost' that Apache is sitting
there waiting but cant get to it outside of localhost. Can someone point me
to something else to read or try?
Many thanks
Cam
