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.

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?
