i have installed an application which supposed to run as a webserver for access from any machine.
But when i do netstat --tcp --listen --program
i dont see any service listening on port 80
how can i open port 80 on my machine,will that solve my problem coz i know the webserver has been succesfully installed
probably.... maybe what distro and firewall are you using (at least what distro)
but i don't see why a firewall would block port 80, its used almost constantly (well, since most people use the web, its safe to say its almost constantly right? )
