It means that you aren't connecting to that host (18.x.x.x). SYN is set on the first TCP packet to establish a connection. Think of it as a "Can I connect to you?" thing. It will sit around and time out before "closing" that socket. If your firewall is blocking all ICMP packets, you may not be seeing an error. Perhaps the site is really busy or slow.

Why are you asking about apache? Do you run a web server on that host? 7869 isn't the normal port to run a web server on. Or are you running it on 192.x.x.x?

Hope that helps,
