I presume you are able to ping the IP addr from the other computer. If you
can access Tomcat locally (localhost:8080), you should most certainly be
able to access it remotely (e.g. http://192.163.1.100:8080). If not already,
don't forget to suffix the IP addr with the port # (8080)
IF the above still doesn't work, what error do you get?
cheers,
Tony

Subject: Can I configure Tomcat to accept HTTP requests from remote
machines?
Can I configure Tomcat to accept http requests from remote IP addresses
without running another web server at the same time? I
currently have Tomcat 3.2.3 installed on NT 4.0 Service pack 6. After
configuring Tomcat, I can enter http://localhost8080
into the location field in my browser and see the welcome page. But
when I try to access the same page from a
different computer using the IP address of the machine I have Tomcat
running on, the page won't come up.
Do I need to be running Apache with Tomcat to access pages remotely? If
someone could please point me in the right
direction, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Ray
