public server?

[andisoftman]

im a complete noob when it comes to servers, but i managed to get it running well on my system (knoppix 3.9 hd), I can access the server from my network, but I cant seem to get it to allow people from the internet to get on. Can anyone help me with this?

P.S. I am using the latest standard version for linux

If the server is behind a broadband gateway, you need to setup "Port forword" for HTTP service, please consult manual of your gateway. Also, make sure your ISP does not block HTTP port 80, otherwise, you have to use a non-standard port.
