I installed apache and mod_ssl. And am using the default configuration.

LOCALLY accessing https or ip:443 via a browser on the linux server box works.

However other machines on the network cannot, they CAN get to port 80 just fine. Mozillia says "connection denied" for 443.

If i change the SSL port in httpd.conf 443->3000 and restart httpd. It works both locally and remotely. Of course I have to ip:3000 instead of just plain https.

I'm puzzled. What is wrong with remotely accessing 443 with the default configuration? What could be wrong?

Am I supposed to enable remote access to that port via a configuration file or something?

 
needed to edit /etc/sysconfig/ipchains and add 443.

dern security.
