Well thanks to all the great suggestions I got past the first hurdle. I changed the listening port to 8080 and now my webpage can be accessed via the net. Now I would like to have the ability to allow people to upload and download files, like an online file server. Any ideas about that?

or an ISP problem.  many of them are known to block incoming HTTP
requests on all ports.  I had that problem with Frontier DSL, switched
