Hi,
I'm trying to get CouchDB to work as a server. I got it install and everything works from the same machine, ie, wget localhost:5984 gives a response.

but i want to access this server over the internet. I set an allow in iptables:
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --sport 5984 -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 5984 -j ACCEPT

/sbin/iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
RH-Firewall-1-INPUT  all  --  anywhere             anywhere
RH-Firewall-1-INPUT  all  --  anywhere             anywhere
ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt: 5984 ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp spt: 5984


I'm able to connect to my webserver on this same machine fine. Just no response on 5984.

Any ideas what's wrong?

thanks,
tommy
