Is there a curses-based browser on the machines you could use via
ssh? I always try to make sure I have lynx available on every
machine I configure...

Hmm...should it be "GET / HTTP/1.1"? Oh, well, I'm not that great on

Can you try doing the same thing from the machines themselves--ssh

The only other thing I can think of to check offhand is the firewall...
