http works from LAN but not web

[devinci]

Ok first i've got a OpenBSD box has a firewall and also runs the httpd server. it's connected to a cable modem so DHCP from ISP. got one of does dyndns.org account and i can't get to the site from the web.

I've got the port 8080 open on firewall. httpd is listen on 8080.

what else do i need to setup??

do you have your firewall forwarding http calls to port 8080?

if you meen did i open the port 8080 on the firewall yes and the site is located on the firewall.

Can you get to it by IP address?

http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

If you can get to the site by ip address but not by name, then it's a dns problem with dyndns.org

If you can't even get in by ip address, then it's a firewall/Nat problem. Do you have a lan with a router? Could your isp also be blocking 8080?
