I have windows xp as my internet server ( I know this is not good but I can't afford a $700 adsl modem) and have my web server on suse 8.0 on another computer. Under windows I have in the internet connection to allow prot 80 to be accessed on another compter (192.168.0.60)but when ever I try to connect to apache from the internet I get connection refused. What do I need to allow someone from the internet to access my web server on the suse computer.
internet computer = 192.168.0.1 suse computer = 192.168.0.60
Well first things first - are you sure that your provider doesnt block port 80 access for residential service? Thats what RoadRunner does.. Bastards 8) Try to run some goofy little thingy on XP machine first 8) then you will exclude possibility of port blocked. If its open - check how you forwarding port 80 from XP to internal web ( - you mean you got internal dsl modem on that XP box? oh my...) Cheers Sergei
