[SOLVED] Unable to "see" web server

Post by ilfungo » 2015/05/03 15:19:10

Hi on my local network I have 2 PC one (the one I use) is windows 7 (192.168.1.5), the other just set up is centos 6.6 which should be my testing web server (192.168.1.4).
Now I set up easily the centos machine. However from the windows machine I can ping it, I can login with putty but I am unable to "visit" the centos machine trough a web client. I try "curl localhost" and it print out a web page, httpd is running.
from windows: "ping 192.168.1.4" will give positive results, "telnet 192.168.1.4 80" say "unable to connect".
"netstat -tuplen" will give me: tcp 0:0:0:80
Now I don't understand if the problem is the local firewall or any linux setting.
Anyone? Thanks a lot!

Run system-config-firewall and open the port.
