Title: Firewall blocking port 80?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Post by: Cameron Monk on January 30, 2002, 03:56:50 PM

I thought that my isp blocked port 80 for some time now, Untill i created a VPN into my server and found i could connect to port 80 from outside my network.

As i would like to run a server.  (and am very sick of giving out https://serverip/)

does anyone have the knowledge to remove the ipchains (i tink its ip chains stopping it, although i cant find it) from blocking port 80 from external hosts

Thankz in advanced

If you were to have created a vpn into your server from an outside subnet, aren't you sending all traffic on the vpn-software's port and not port 80?
