[Bese-devel] httpd rejecting foreign connections by default?

[Tim Martin]

Hi,

I'm completly new to UCW, and almost completely new to CL. I've 
installed the ucw-boxset using SBCL under linux, and haven't changed the 
configuration at all. Running the start script seems to go OK, but I 
can't connect to the app from anywhere other than localhost. I've tested 
connecting to a trivial perl script on the same port, so I'm fairly 
certain there's no firewalls getting in the way.

Before I go diving in trying to figure out what went wrong, is there 
anything obvious I should know about? I tried frobbing some of the 
settings in etc/conf.lisp (in particular, setting the ucw-backend-host 
parameter to the external IP of the server) without effect.

I've used mod_lisp briefly, and I guess I can probably get round this by 
using the mod_lisp backend, but ideally I'd like to get running with UCW 
without too much more work configuring it.
