    headless server

    i have a headless server running just fine at home while i am at school. i have a web interface running on port 6883. when i try to change the port to 80 it still doesnt show up, its as if apache blocks it from the internet. (apache is necessary for this server) is there a way to set it so that when i enter the hostname, it goes straight to the interface?

    Re: headless server

    Is this "web interface" something other than Apache? Only one thing can listen on a given port.

    Is something blocking the port? From a remote machine:
    Code:
    nmap -p80 webserver_address
    Is the server itself firewalling the port?
    Code:
    sudo iptables -L
