I installed jetty on an ubuntu 11 machine by
sudo apt-get install jetty
afterwards I configured the context, the war file and the NO_START variable. All works OK when I test it on the same machine, e.g.
curl http://localhost:8080/
However, when I try to connect from an external machine, it just doesn't answer. I tried this both on a virtual machine on a Win 7 host, and on Amazon EC2.
thanks,
