Ted,

Sitting at you windows box that is running TC you can open IE and access
http://localhost but if you try to access http://yourMachinesIP it fails.

>From a command prompt ping localhost. Then ping the IP of your machine.

Notice that localhost resolves to 127.0.0.?

Do an ipconfig /all from the command promrt. Confirm the IP of your machine.

Are you running ANY firewall software? Disable it on a temporary basis to
test. Then configure it to allow http port 80 traffic through.

I am not aware of any setting that binds tomcat to an IP like apache can.
Although you can filter on an IP.

Subject: http://localhost/ works but http://<ip address>/ doesn't


http://localhost/ works but http://<ip address>/ doesn't. Internet Explorer

gives a "Cannot find server" message.

I have tomcat 5.0.18 (without apache).

I can ping my IP externally. I have port forwarding enabled on my router.

Is there something I need to do to server.xml to enable this to work?

Thanks
