misterperl has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I installed and started podwebserver as root. Oddly, the install did not put the executable into /usr/bin even though the install said OK. locate didn't find it anywhere!

So I copied that from another node, placed it into /usr/bin, and chmod-ed it. Now it runs. It indexes modules, then tells me I can access the pod using localhost:8020 . Ducky!

But that host is in another state- its NOT my localhost. So I figure no problem, I'll just use:

http://www.myserver.com:8020
But that times out.. Is this ONLY viewable as localhost?
