Networking :: Q:howto open port 8080?

hello world,
I installed DSL to an old Pentium200 64MB Ram box. (harddisk-install) - and I love it! Finally and (almost) up-to-date Linux-distri that runs fine on that out-dated hardware.

my question, probably a piece-of-cake for you: after installing moinmoin wiki that listens on port 8080 I can connect fine to it from the box itself, but not from another PC inside the home network. (Connections to port 80, i.e. "monkey web-server" run fine)

I assume some kind of firewall/port restrictions apply but can't figure out how to configure properly.

thanks in advance

DSL does not come with any firewall by default - you should probably check your network/LAN/software setup.
