Check your DNS? lvcm.com is a DNS nightmare, methinks; but, maybe that's not the server to which you refer --- my guess is you're trying to serve from home or office on a Cox Cable Modem. Run ipfw -show? If your machine "shows" anything besides: socket: operation not permitted, likely you *are* firewalled. Running NAT? Behind a router? Have a friend run a portscanner, or, you do it from outside.
