I''m having the same problem of not being able to connect to my web server outside my firewall.. By chance are you using AT&T broadband? I called their tech support and they told me they didnt have any blocks on residential web servers. Then tonight i found this article: http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/stories/news/0,4586,5095448,00.html It basically said that AT&T has blocked the use of port 80 for residintial customers.So, I am thinking this is our problem. I am wondering if there is a way to make apache use a different port number instead of port 80.Or does all http have to be port 80. Please email me if you find a fix. brian2@stribmail.com
I think you need a firewall to redirect it. I''m not sure if you can do that with a dns. Does anybody else know?

Try port 8080 - it''s the unofficial "alternate default." One down side - your pages won''t be found by most search-engine crawlers...

you could go here and see if your port 80 is open... http://hackerwhacker.com:80/newindex.dyn "Eric B. Marquez" wrote:> I think you need a firewall to redirect it.
