webservers: don't accept external connections?

[William Leese <wleese@europe.nl.com>]

Hi there,

After having killed my debian install one day and reinstalling it the other, 
I've since then had trouble getting external computers to access my webpages.

Although I can view the page from my own computer and that of another 
computer on the network (although ipmasq stopped working also.. so i can't do 
that anymore..) other people simply can't access the pages, they just get a 
'host not found' error.

can someone shed some light on this? 

Cheers,

William
