Can get to Apache from internal only

Reefcrazed · 02-24-2005, 03:52 PM

I have a FC3 box with Apache running and a test website. I can get to this site from any machine external, also a mail server running. I can send mail to the box from the web with port 25 forwarded to the box, and FTP into the box. I can also get to the website on the computers in the house. But when I leave and go to another computer external I do not get my website when going to the domain.

I have 21, 25 and 80 forwarded to this i.p. address as always, I am at a loss why this does not work. Is there something in Apache I missed that only works locally ?

My ISP blocks port 80. I bet yours does, too.

Well they did not about 6 months ago, how can I tell if the ISP is blocking it or if the router is blocking it. Is there a way to tell one from the other ?

Here is what I got back from DSL reports.

TCP 25 : OPEN The port is open.
5 - Read

TCP 80 : OPEN The port is open.
37 - Read

i assume you have a static public ip, this is not a dns issue is it?

Are you able to telnet into port 80 on your server from outside?

Yes I have a static I.P.

Telnet into port 80, is that a normal telnet port ?

No, its not a normal telnet port, but you can use telnet to test if it is receiving connections.

Code:

telnet <IP ADDRESS> 80
Trying <IP ADDRESS>...
Connected to <HOST>.
Escape character is '^]'.

Will show that port 80 is accepting connections.
