Title: SME 5.6 Port Forwarding port 80
Post by: agodin on April 04, 2004, 11:47:32 AM

Using version 5.6, have port filtering and port forwarding packages installed.
When I forward port 8080 to internal webserver, all works fine, but forwarding port 80 fails to forward to internal server, rather just displays default apache site for server. Other ports forwarded work correctly as well..

Any ideas why all other ports besides 80 forward correctly but not port 80?

Any help appreciated :)

first:
search and read ALL post about portforwarding in this forum.

the you will see that the port 80 is used by the httpd and cannot be forwarded until the httpd is stopped.

then search the forum for httpd und ports.

cheers klaus

Thank you for your reply...
I found the problem to be the PREROUTING for port 80 setup in the iptables. Once I removed this port 80 forwarded correctly.

I had tried it with httpd stopped etc with no luck, hence the original post for help etc.

Thanks again
