Can only view web pages from localhost
I am a new user of Tomcat. In my test system I have pc's networked via a
wireless router. The router assigns the IP address of 192.168.0.2 to the
machine that runs Tomcat. When I run Tomcat using < <http://localhost/>
http://localhost/> <http://localhost/> http://localhost/... or <
<http://192.168.0.2/> http://192.168.0.2/> <http://192.168.0.2/>
http://192.168.0.2/...
everything works fine when I work on the local machine. But when I attempt
to view web pages from any other machine on the network using <
<http://192.168.0.2/> http://192.168.0.2/> <http://192.168.0.2/>
http://192.168.0.2/... I get timed out.
How should I configure Tomcat so that it accepts requests from other
machines -- not just localhost?
I am using Tomcat 6.0.18 on windows XP Professional.
Yes, windows firewall is on.

Either turn off Windows firewall or configure the firewall to have an
exception to let port 80 open to the network.
