Such as http://www.yoururl.com:9000See if it works. Also to make sure apache is working, I''m sure you''ve typed localhost into your browser on the server (assuming you have a browser on the server) and got the default apache page or your own html page. ;quote:Original post by Nervo  set up port forwarding on your router to some high port like 8000, and have people connect to you using that port.

WIth my firewall off I coulden''t ping my computer still...   Do you have the cabl... oh wait - you''re not looking for irony right now. Okay. What OS are you running Apache on? I personally found it to be somewhat of an ordeal to properly set it up with php and all of the peripherals in Windows.If you can''t ping your computer then the least you could do is let us know what ping tells you (Destination host on reachable/ request timed out). Could be pinging is disallowed by your ISP. Since you''re saying that following Nervo''s advice yields no results, you could actually list a few programs you do know can access the Internet. Alternatively, you could test being-blockedness by going to www.tucows.com and downloading some alternative server (such as the Cerberus FTP server) and see if that works (since it requires absolutely no effort on your part whatsoever, apart from setting up a user account, so you can''t mess up).
