Apache woes

[Cam Roe]

Hi Brian - It checks to look at the obvious, I know cause I've been
there and done that! :)  

In this case though Apache is up and running and I actually can browse
to it on the local network.(port 80 so nothing untoward there)  It's
just from external sources that it seems to be blocked. I did a 
netstat anyway - just to be sure and got the following result. I think
it's correct. 


netstat --ip -l

No joy yet. :(
