ok. I had an Apache server running on mandrake 8.1. One day the server stopped allowing web pages to be viewed in a browser. You can ftp in to the server, webmin is working, but none of the web pages can be viewed from the web. I have one computer on the same network (behind the same router) that can view the web pages from a browser, but no computers outside of the network can view the pages. I can't access the server's IP from the web, but i can access webmin which is the server's IP on port 10000. I didn't mess with the router's config, all the right ports are still forwarded to the server. What other possibilities are there?
Routers can crash too! Recently my internet access began to slow down dramitcally. I tried a bunch of things that did not work. Then I restarted the router and everything worked perfectly again.
no i was at work and a friend called me and said she couldn't pull up her site in a browser, but she could ftp into it. i though she was on krak but when i checked it out she was right. it just stopped working out of the blue.
yeah i've reboot and restarted every thing a zillion times. as far as i can tell port 80 is being blocked. maybe it's time for a new router.... in that case i'm in the wrong forum
ouch... yeah i thought of that too. they have shareware servers blocked like kazza and imesh. i've never been able to connect to these guys. i live in a neightborhood that shares a t1, none of my friends that have the t1 access can connect to kazaa or imesh.....
those b@st@rds!
ok switching it to port 8080 in the httpd.cfg file worked but when i type it into a browser i have to put :8080 at the end of the domain. how can i have just the domain resolve to port 8080 without putting it at the end?
yeah but if my ISP is blocking port 80 then requests coming in on port 80 will never make it to my router for the router to forward. is there a away to make all requests resolve to port 8080 from the dns server? i'm gonna play with that.
