Re: iptables with webserver

Given your question I assume that you have iptables running and configured a firewall. Because your question is rather generic I'd answer you have to allow connections to port 80 on the nic your webserver is listening by adding the the right iptables rules to the INPUT chain in your firewall script. For a better answer it would help if you'd post your firewall setup.

Edit: I forgot about the wiki ...

Re: iptables with webserver

You should add

-i eth0

to the rule to allow only for eth0.
