Indeed. This sounds like something isn't wuite right with the Apache setup.

Lars, have you tried accessing the webserver from your private
network, localhost, with/without the firewall enabled. Does that make
any difference or do you get the same result each time?

You could also try setting "LogLevel debug" in httpd.conf and see what
errors (if any) you are getting.

It's probably best though if you post the VirtualHost section of your
httpd.conf.

Hope this helps.

David
