http://www.dyndns.com/support/kb/why_cant_i_connect_to_my_server.html

I can acesss my webserver locally on port 3001 (arbitrarily picked).

I get "Connection Open" with the Open Port Tool. (I've forwarded port 3001)

I get seemingly correct results with the "DNSCog DNS lookup and report utility." (XXX.homelinux.com 60 IN A my_ip)

However, when I access the page http://XXX.homelinux.com:3001/, I get "This webpage is not available."

Have I configured my apache webserver wrong? Is this a problem with my apache httpd.conf file? If that's the issue, could somebody post what the relevant parts of the apache httpd.conf ought to look like?

Thanks a ton for any help!

1 Answer:

You did not put a default document (e.g. index.html according to DirectoryIndex) into the DocumentRoot folder or did another similar mistake in httpd.conf. Nothing to do with DynDNS.

index.html is in the document root, and it loads fine on localhost:3001...
