Thanx friend, but this is old news. This has been part of the conversation. Using another port under linux does me no good. lets get back to the heart of my original question. try this: my windoze web server has now been changed to be viewed via open port 8008 instead of "80" ok, someone give me feedback, let me know if you can view it. If so, great,...my original question was, so how can i get fedora to work using port 8008 instead of the stock "80".??? If it is still inaccessible, then i'm back to square one, and the problem is unknown. 8008 is where I now have incoming requests forwarded to the web server machine running a private ip. josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sean Middleditch" <elanthis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, October 11, 2003 6:35 PM Subject: Re: easy networking question (maybe) > On Sat, 2003-10-11 at 18:21, josh lynch wrote: > > ok, well let me open this up a bit more.
