Also, are you simply getting a time out or a connection refused
error? It sounds, as has been stated before, like an iptables
issue.

If you're getting some other error it would be excellent to know
what that error is. Are you seeing any errors in
the /var/log/httpd/error_log or in /var/log/messages?

I'd think though that it's just iptables blocking the port.
