Hiawatha version:
Operating System: puppylinux431

hi all. i have been trying to setup hiawatha now for a few days and can't seem to access my site. i can get the site to load from local host 127.0.0.1 and from my ubuntu pc via my wan ip. however i had my brother try and access the site 68.96.68.193 my home ip and it is not working. i have set my router to use dmz. so like i said i can see the page from inside the network but not from outside. i also tried setting up the firewall to allow http port 80.

i know it has to be something really simple but i cant seem to figure it out. i also tried removing the binding port 127.0.0.1 i read on puppy forum but to no avail. this is driving me nuts.:oops:

do i need to change the port from 80 to something else? i read some isp's block port 80?

Make sure you have no Interface option set in your binding section. This makes Hiawatha bind to all interfaces.

According to this forum, your ISP blocks port 80. So, try another port to check this.

ok i will try another port number

thnx Hugo

Ok got it working. I had to change the port number. I knew it was something too simple:D woot
