Is Tomcat bound to *:8080, or is there a specific IP address instead of *? If there's a specific address, you may want to change your connector settings. 2) From the test client, run "telnet <linux machine ip> 8080". Do you get a connection? Is the connection refused quickly? Or does the connection fail slowly? If you get a connection using telnet, check your browser settings on the test client - particularly proxy settings. If the connection fails slowly, check the firewall on the test client (or you may already know that it's disabled). Oh, and 3) are you *absolutely* sure the Tomcat server is allowing the traffic in and out, and there are no odd remnants of firewall rules lying around? - Peter
