apache error?

I'm running apache on Red Hat linux 7.2, I can see the files of the server
in my browser, but other users can't, they receive the following
message:"Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host.".

Do you know why is this?

Hope you can help me.

Best Regards,
Simao Mata

They need to be able to connect to your machine.

Check whether they are able to ping to your machine.

I think I found out the problem, but I don't know how to solve it, I think it's because other hosts (other than localhost) don't have permission to access my machine, because true localhost I can connect with ssh and other users can't, I changed hosts.allow in /etc, I add a line: ALL:ALL but everything seems to be in the same way.

Hope you can help me,

Best regards,
Simao Mata

Send a message via ICQ to johan
You say you can access your local web from localhost...
So..
telnet localhost 80
should be OK..

But can you access your web via your real IP?
try...with telnet on port 80
telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 80

or
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/
Does this work too?
