vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
change the Listen directive to reflect the correct port number
service httpd restart
chkconfig httpd on
check your iptables settings
1. if default policy is to drop, then: iptables -nL | grep 8008
the results should show a rule allowing inbound connections
(and assuming stateful conn tracking, you should have a rule
allowing outbound traffic, too).
2. if default policy is to accept, then iptables -nL | grep 8008
the results should be empty
[please change your firewall to default drop after that]
check /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny
if you have ALL:ALL in /etc/hosts.deny, then /etc/hosts.allow must have
an appropriate entry, such as "httpd: ALL"
