Thank you both-- sockstat -4 show that it's listening on *:80, which is right. Neither tcpdump (assuming I'm reading it correcting) nor httpd-access.log shows any tcp packets at all getting through except when lynx is run from the machine on which apache is running after Sept 12 at 2:12 a.m. Thus, I assume packets are not getting to the server, except when requested from the local machine. email and ftp are working--and I can log into the machine remotely-- so stuff is getting out and in. tcpdump shows a lot of other activity, So, I'm stumped.
