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? 

 First thing to try is running "nmap 192.162.1.105" from a different host.
You shouldn't be surprised that "nmap localhost" shows an open port because
you can connect to it.
 
On your YDL box, run "iptables --list" and let us know what you get. It
should be real short.
 
If it's not, then shut down iptables and try it again. In fact, just do that
first and see what you get....
