Hello. I hope I'm not asking a question that had already been answered elsewhere, but I can't find any information, so I'll pester you kind people :) I recently setup a freebsd box [v4.4]. The installation went smoothly, I setup everything I needed, and everything worked as expected. I installed apache1.3 straight from the installation program. However, when I setup apache [made the appropriate changes to httpd.conf] and started having friends access the rudimentary test webpages i made, I got strange results: certain machines [outside of the machines on my LAN] can only see the text portions of my webpages, while some machines can see the text and images on the webpages. There doesn't seem to be any consistency with what machines can only see text and which machines can see text and images. I have had around 12 different people access these webpages, some with dialup connections, some with dedicated connections, and even someone using a macintosh. The only consistent aspect is that when a person's machine can't see the images, they can't see the images on both ie and netscape. My freebsd machine is connected to a router, which is connected to a dsl line. DHCP is turned off on the router, and the router is setup to forward requests from port 80 to the freebsd box. I'm having my friends access this machine using just the ip address, not through a name [yet]. Also, NFS is not setup on this machine, and i can telnet and ftp to this machine fine [although telnet connections do sometimes hang for no reason]. I've tried many [many] different solutions, and read as much information as I could find, but I'm having no luck fixing this. Any comments or suggestions would be helpful.
