If 8080 doesn't work, then it's blocked by the firewall, you could try 
to check if you can allow 8080 out of the firewall.

If the 404 is a classic apache httpd response, then there's no bridge 
connecting httpd and tomcat, so it's not an XWiki issue but a 
httpd<->tomcat connector one.

Try looking ini in /var/log/tomcat* or /usr/local/tomcat*/logs/
