Nevermind, I fixed my problem. I noticed last night tha I could post comments from within my firewall, so i must be a DNS issue.

I have a funky setup since my ISP blocks port 80, I’m running the blog on port 4444. But, I have a no-ip.org dns-redirect setup, so that http requests to ‘johnsjournal’ get redirected to my IP:4444 , which is then redirected through my firewall to the correct internal machine. I also have DNS aliases setup so that things ‘just work’ from within my firewall, so ‘johnsjournal’ resolves to the internal network address from inside my network. This must have been messing up wordpress somehow.

To fix it, I simply changed this line in my comments.php file:

<form action=”http://SITENAME/wp-comments-post.php&#8221; method=”post” id=”commentform”>

to:

<form action=”/wp-comments-post.php” method=”post” id=”commentform”>

And that seems to have fixed the problem.

hope this helps someone..
