Hi Stanley,

 From _where_ are you doing that request?

Which firewall?

[Your logic seems to me to work backwards. I'd first cover my own @$$ 
and only then call my ISP. Even then, most of the time it's my own 
stupid mistakes... ;-) ]

> What step(s) am I missing ?

Basically, you haven't given us any information other than "I can't get 
Apache to work as I'd like to."

What's your setup? LAN, WAN, firewall(s), FreeBSD version, Apache 
version (ports?), setup of client machine (where is it)?

That kind of stuff.

Bye... Nico
