Lorian Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Am running Apache on Fedora Core 4, all works fine, set up my router to redirect port 80 traffic to this PC, but when I try to type in my IP address in the address bar if doesn't respond. How do I sort it out? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoz Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 First check to see if apache is up and listening. ]$ netstat -tlpn If you don't see something listening to port 80 then you'll have to check that the server is running. If you used rpms to install apache you should be able to do the following to start it ]$ /sbin/service httpd start You can then test that it's responding using telnet assuming it's installed telnet 127.0.0.1 80 Now try to connect from the other box. If you can't then it's more than likely that either your firewall is blocking incomming connections or the router is misconfigured Post your progress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
