Also check your firewall rules and make sure that they aren't blocking inncomming connections to port 80. If you are using ipfw you will need something like this in /etc/rc.firewall for the firewall section you are using: (snip from the client section of my rc.firewall) ... # Allow and log connection setup ${fwcmd} add pass log tcp from any to a.b.c.d 80 setup # Continue to allow already established connections ${fwcmd} add pass tcp from any to any established ... -- - James _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
