Let's make sure it's actually listening on something other than 127.0.0.1. as root: netstat -anp | grep :8000 Also note that if you are using a non-business ISP, it is common for them to prohibit servers, and block inbound ports that are common for this kind of thing. you might want to try something more random like 3874 or something. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
