Yes, more troubleshooting on Bray's part would help.  He needs to

build some basic routines when he encounters troubles like these.

Basically if I don't have a good idea where the problem might lay I

start from the bottom and work up.  For me a simple routine in this

case would be to rule out network configs, rule out PF, rule out DNS

issues, and rule out httpd issues with some intermediary steps between

those.
