even if the isp blocks ports.... you can still modify the ports that apache/httpd uses. you'll probably need to port forward these at your router (you do have a router, right!!)
you'll also need to remember to use your new port when directly accessing your website. you could also check out the dynamic/redirect services out on the net.. have fun!! -----Original Message----- From: Eric Covener [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2008 7:03 AM To: users@httpd.apache.org Subject: Re: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Can't access site outside local network?
