//moderator.note: even tho I understand this is an important issue, you already have a
thread on it. Effectively you're crossposting. Also I am under the impression you didn't read my reply well. I didn't ask you to "su" over to check on Lynx, but to flush the firewall rules.
If I'm strict I have to close this one being the last one, but this one time you may request a merge between the two threads or tell me which one to close.

As far as restrictions go I can only imagine three places:
- TCP Wrappers: /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow
- firewall (wherever that is on MNF try "iptables -L -n>/tmp/log")
- Apache: /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf or something like that
read the docs, inspect each location for inclusion of the IP address you want to connect from and post the real messages from the logs. And could you point to any MNF docs online?
