Hi folks, 
I've managed to configure my home OpenLinux box as a webserver. I can connect 
to my box thru my freesco router using port 8192 (which gets forwarded to my 
192.168.1.2:80 port -- to keep @home off my back) and can bring up the 
generic index.html page that comes with OpenLinux. The problem I'm having 
comes when I try to connect to my $home/public_html direcotry's main.htm page 
(added as a default page to the httpd.conf file). When I tried to connect to 
24.249.182.134:8192/~dad from work, I got a permission error (cannot access 
192.168.1.2 - or something like that -- I can't test it from home)
The permissions on my public_html directory are drwxr-xr-x
The permissions on my main.htm page in the public_html directory are (were) 
-rw-r--r--
My home directory is rwx--x--x
Should the html pages have executable permission in order for the world to 
have access? I executed 'chmod +x' on the files and I can access the page 
from my son's PC @ 192.168.1.5, but I can't test it from the outside world.

Thanks, 
Tim
