Hi, I've just installed Alfresco on a CentOS 4.4 (Red Hat ES) server. I can connect on the server to http://127.0.0.1:8080/alfresco, which pops up correctly, but when I try to connect remotely http://208.109.232.184:8080/alfresco
it doesn't work (times out).
I should mention that I installed remotely using ssh -X (was V-E-R-Y S-L-O-W, took about two hours) and used AlfrescoCommunity-2.0-Linux-x86-Install, with all typical, default install, and I logged in as root first.
Am I misunderstanding something here? Can Alfresco not work over the Internet? That would be a big bummer. Here are all the log files I can find, if that helps.

I opened ports 8080-8089 on my client computer's router to forward to me (which I then checked with a internet port checker), and still nothing. I put the actual server IP address in the original post, so you can check if you'd like. It's just a test server, it will be erased once I get everything set satisfactorily.) As a follow up question, assuming I get it to work at all over the internet, can Alfresco be put on port 80, or any other way that doesn't require forwarding ports? I'm hoping to have unsophisticated users.

Hi,
If you have nothing else running on port 80 you can configure Tomcat to run on this port.
Take a look at the Tomcat server docs for how to do this.
(a quick google resulted in this website that contains some good info on how to do this: http://www.klawitter.de/tomcat80.html)
Hope this helps,
Steve

Thanks so much for the quick reply, but before I start messing around with the tomcat ports, I'd like to find out why it doesn't work over port 8080 through the internet. Do you have any suggestions?

I went to a tomcat forum,and they straightened me out, perhaps this will be of use to others.
According to them–
your redhat/centos server is blocking port 8080, you must open that port up.
or better, proxy through your httpd server
in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf add the following lines
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass /alfresco http://localhost:8080/alfresco
ProxyPassReverse /alfresco http://localhost:8080/alfresco
ProxyPreserveHost On
Restart httpd "/etc/init.d/httpd restart"
then access your app
http://208.109.232.184/alfresco
