I used ShieldsUp, and the port is reporting as 'stealth'. I then tested another forwarded port to a different web server and it was open. So I simply changed the IP address to point to the LAMP appliance, and it reported as stealth again - same port that was open. Only difference is its being forwarded to the LAMP server now instead of the other web server.
Yes, the IP address is correct and I have the Apache server listening on the correct port (tried 80, 8080, 8000, 8009) none of which worked. Using port 8009 on my other web server, and there is a third device with a web server on port 81, and they both work perfectly fine. It's only the LAMP server that is not accessible remotely.
I am running the appliance on Virtualbox on macosx 10.5.8. Virtualbox networking is set in bridged adapter mode. Just incase there was some issue with a firewall running on my mac, I checked and its set to allow all incoming connections, and Little Snitch is turned off whilst Im testing all this.
It is ONLY the LAMP server that is not remote accessible, surely that means theres something wrong with my LAMP config somewhere?
not a port forwarding issue
