When Lion's firewall is disabled, I can reach my apache from within my local network (from a second device).
When Lion's firewall is enabled, I can't connect anymore from a second device (only localhost connections work).

Even if I allow connections to all apps (tried it, just to be sure) apache is still not reachable with enabled firewall.

What to do ? I think some basic firewall is nice, so I want to use it, but if I can't connect to my local apache with enabled firewall I'm forced to have it disabled. So it's a XOR relationship where I lose no matter what I choose.

I use macports apache2 btw.
