[Sheflug] Apache

["Ian Wright" <nospam [at] iw63.freeserve.co.uk>]

Hi,

I have been trying to set up Apache on my LAN but don't seem to be having
much success. The linux box it is on says it is installed OK (i.e going to
'localhost' in the browser gives me the Apache start-up page) but when I try
to look at this machine (192.168.1.2) from a browser on the windoze box I
just get a 'page cannot be displayed' message. I also tried setting up
Sambar on the windoze box to see if I could make things work the other way
round but, although again I can see Sambar as 'localhost' on the win box,
trying to access it across the network gives me a message saying that 'the
server is not accepting connections' or something similar. Needless to say,
the network is working OK apart from this and I can mont one machine on the
other, ping back and forth and run the various machines one from the other
using vnc so what am I missing? Thanks,

Ian
