Thanks QM! This works now! :) yuppiii!
I run the same command for the iptables with a bit change:
>iptables -t filter -I RH-Firewall-1-INPUT 7\
-p tcp --dport 8080 \
-m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT
>service iptables save
the -I option to insert this rule in a specific line number, in my case
7.
And it works. My tomcat can be seen from the outside now.
By the way, I managed to run tomcat from a user tomcat and not from
root. :)
Also, I added the following lines in the server.xml file at the very
end.
After the last </Context> tag and before the last </Host> tag:
<Context path="/~dln" docBase="/home/dln/wwwdocs" debug="0"
reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
</Context>
This allows me to now see the jsp's located in /home/dln/wwwdocs as
http://my.domain.com:8080/~dln/myfile.jsp
But I would like to be able to access this file with no 8080 port at
all, like this: http://my.domain.com/~dln/myfile.jsp
Does anybody know how to accomplish this?
I tested the following : http://localhost:8080/examples and
http://localhost/examples and they both work fine.
If I try to reach from the outside http://my.domain.com:8080/examples it
works fine, but I cannot see the http://my.domain.com/examples

Clearly, my eyes aren't as sharp when I'm half-awake.
Here's the culprit:
: REJECT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0
reject-with
: icmp-host-prohibited
That's the tail end of the chain, so any rules appended to that chain
(like the Tomcat rule I showed you) will never be reached.
Rerun the "iptables --list" command, but use the switch to show rule
numbers. You can then run the other iptables command I showed you, but
use *insert* instead of *append*. Be sure to insert above that last
reject rule.
See the iptables docs/manpage for more info, commandline switches, etc.
