Frustrating huh ? I would be tempted to momentarily lift any firewall you have, to make sure something has not got twisted up in the rules, or changes made to the O/S or get something else listening on port 80, netcat or something like that (I think it goes under the name nc in FreeBSD). Put your web-server on another port 8080, for example. Is it a proxy problem ? I guess you have run through all these possibilities... Well, good luck..you can always ask me if there is no external tester to hand, I work at home mostly, so it's no sweat to me..on a fixed price 24/7 ADSL link..so no expenses involved :) -- Regards Cliff Sarginson The Netherlands [ This mail has been checked as virus-free ] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
