[us...@httpd] Unable to access http pages

2009-06-18 Thread Madhav Ancha
Hi,
   I started an apache server on a local machine(A) on linux. I can ping
this machine from another host(B) on the same network but I can't browse to
it using http://. I get the error saying IE cannot display this page.

I verified that the server is running on (A) by using
http://localhoston the local machine (A). Are there any more
permissions I should be setting
for machine B to be able to access the http server on A?

Thanks,
Madhav.

Machine B is a win box Evan. I did a putty -raw 10.1.10.110 80 and got
back nothing. The connection was probably closed at the kernel and putty
quit.

 Firewall?

 on computer B:

 telnet ip.address.of.a 80

I found the cause. Iptables was blocking the http requests on machine A.
Thanks for your help Evan.
