Issue with NAT / ports/ Apache

[omega1]

Heelo,

I have a Debian guest running on a Windows 7 host. I have installed Apache on the Debian guest but am having trouble seeing it from outside the network.

My Windows host has an fixed public IP address, for this example, lets say 10.1.1.1

I have set up the network for the Debian guest as NAT and have port forwarded port 48080 to port 80.

I would expect, from out side my network, to be able to enter http://10.1.1.1:48080/index.html and see the apache's It's working page.

I have tried/verified:

- Apache2 is running on the machine as I have tried curl http://localhost/index,html and it works.
- I can see the Debian box from outside because I have forwarded port 48022 to port 22 for SSH login and it works by entering 10.1.1.1:48022 into Putty and I can SSH.

I'm sure I've done everything correctly, but I just cant get the default apache page to show, it just times out when I go to http://10.1.1.1:48080/index.html

Any ideas? Thanks.

Just to be clear, 10.1.1.1 is an example, I am using my real public IP address for this.

Sorry, scrub this, I changed the port to 48020 and for some reason it worked! I do not know why, as 48080 is not in use anywhere... Really do not know why this is, but I have solved it now.

Thanks.
