Apache 2.0.52 Windows XP Pro SP2 - localhost only problem

Problem:

I can only get my apache to work from localhost:8080 and 127.0.0.1:8080


System Spec:

Apache 2.0.52 (x386)
PHP 5.????
MySQL 4.0.21

Windows XP Pro w/SP2

Windows Firewall - OFF

ZoneAlarm Firewall - allow all incoming/outgoing TCP on ports 80, 1433,
8080

No Route, Hub, or switch

Internet connection: ADSL, my ISP does NOT allow port 80

My IP: 66.183.xxx.xx

httpd.conf ---------------------------- > I will include the whole

This is just my test server, but I NEED to have some people be able to
view my test server from a remote location. My ISP does not allow port
80 so I have apache listening to

port 8080. I have also tried port 993 just for the he!! of it.
nothing works.

http://localhost:8080/ProductionMonitor.htm --- Works
http://127.0.0.1:8080/ProductionMonitor.htm --- Works

http://66.183.xxx.xx:8080/ProductionMonitor.htm - DOES NOT WORK, the
browser just sits there and times out, then I get a message - Server
Can not be Found. This happens from

both remote computers, and the computer where the server in running on.



I can ping my IP from any computer, local or remote.



What am I doing wrong?

There has to be 1 setting that I have wrong SOMEWHERE??

Any help would be great.

Sincerely;
MJ

For what reason do you use another IP address here?

Good, at least your server is running.

Are you sure your ISP doesn't block 8080 as well ?

The latter would only work if you have
- NAT loopback on your router
or
- your browser set up to use a proxy server _outside_ your
local network.

Search this group on "loopback" and my name for a more detailed
explanation.

It was just a typo in my post, my IP is 66.183.xxx.xx ... :)

I have also tried:
- using port 93
- turning both my ZoneAlarm, and Norton Anti-Virus OFF

All that my "c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\host" has in it is:
127.0.0.1 localhost

NOW, I have a friend running ALMOST the same setup on his home
computer:
win xp pro w/sp2
apache2.0.52
etc ...

His server works from local and remote computers so I had him send me
his httpd.conf file .I updated all the paths in his httpd.conf file and
used that file to start my apache with. I was able to get the server
up and running np, but once again it only worked from localhost or
127.0.0.1

This makes me believe that I must have a setting in Windows wrong, not
my Apache.


Any help??? please

Indeed it seems to be something in Windows or your network
configuration. In your first posting you said:

> No Route, Hub, or switch

Are you sure about that? What kind of connection do you have to
the internet?

Some ADSL and Cable modems act like a router. If you have one of
those, you have to activate NAT (Network Address Translation)
to route incoming traffic for port 93 to the address of your
webserver on your local network (usually 10.x.y.z or
192.168.x.y, ipconfig can tell you which address that is).
Once that is set, your friend should be able to find your server
on 66.183.xxx.xx:93

NAT as such will not let you address 66.183.xxx.xx from within
your local network, my first follow-up tells you how to do that
(NAT loopback etc.)

Hope this helps,
