Hi,
This is something strange that bugs me for a while now. I have a customer that simply cannot connect to his website hosted on FreeBSD 9.x / DirectAdmin (on port 80, surfing with any browser).
I've setup IPFW / Brute Force Monitor but his ip is not listed (in the DirectAdmin controlpanel BFM). Further more, he can easily reach his DA Controlpanel when connecting to DirectAdmin on port 2222.
He can also mail any particular mail address hosted on this server.
Yet he cannot reach any of the sites hosted on this server.
He can reach without problem the ISP the ip-address of the VPS server belongs to.
If he disconnects from his router, and connects directly to his modem his ISP serves him a different ip-address in another range (still belonging to this ISP) and he can serve all sites A-ok no problems.
Before going technical about router misconfigurations and ISP's blocking something I just want to know:
Is it possible IPFW or DirectAdmin somehow is blocking access to port 80 to some ip address or ip address range, if yes, where to look ?
And, yes indeed, no other customer experiences such problem "it's just him".
Thanks,
Martin
