Unable to access web server from local virtual network

Akalenuk

I have installed several virtual machines. Some uder Windows, some under Fedora Linux. On one of the Fedora machines, I have the Apache web server installed.

172.16.27.129:80I set the server name in httpd.conf to , make sure access to the html directory is , and populate that directory Allow from allwith a test .htmlfile . After starting httpd, I have a working web server locally.

Then I tried to access it from other computer and it failed. Just got the "Firefox could not establish the connection" message.

The error log on the server computer is empty. I thought it might be a firewall, so I set up iptables like this:

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         
ACCEPT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere            state RELATED,ESTABLISHED 
ACCEPT     icmp --  anywhere             anywhere            
ACCEPT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere            
ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            state NEW tcp dpt:ssh 
REJECT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere            reject-with icmp-host-prohibited 
ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            tcp dpt:http state NEW,ESTABLISHED 
ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            tcp dpt:https state NEW,ESTABLISHED 

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         
REJECT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere            reject-with icmp-host-prohibited 

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         
ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            tcp spt:http state ESTABLISHED 
ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            tcp spt:https state ESTABLISHED

Still no luck. I think it might be network related. But I have a Subversion server working over HTTPS on one of my virtual Windows machines, so the network should be fine.

At this point, I'm running out of ideas. What did I miss?

Update: It has to be iptables. I just tweaked it a bit and the whole thing worked.

target     prot opt source               destination

ACCEPT     icmp --  anywhere             anywhere            
ACCEPT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere

REJECT     all  --  anywhere             anywhere            reject-with icmp-host-prohibited 
ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            tcp dpt:http state NEW,ESTABLISHED 
ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            tcp dpt:https state NEW,ESTABLISHED

The problem here is that both lines related to HTTP and HTTPS traffic appear right after the REJECTinput , which means that these rules are not seen at all. They need to be put into the IPTABLES config before REJECT, otherwise they will be blocked.
