Apache and Red Hat 7.1
Any suggestions for getting Apache to work on Red Hat 7.1? I've tried to get it working, but whenever I try to access the computer running the server via telnet or an internet browser, I get "Connection refused"
Is it the firewall, or am I making some mistake in the Apache configuration? :confused:

Is Apache started?

Did you make sure its starting with a valid user/group?

Are you sure your firewall isn't blocking you?

Did you do a netstat to see if port 80 (or whichever one you used) was open?

What does /var/log/messages or /var/log/message.log or /var/log/daemon.log say? (I'm a FreeBSD sort, so you might log to different places than I do.)
[I am not really here. This post is entirely a figment of your imagination.]

:doh: Turned out that was the problem. The book I got with the distro (as in the cd was packaged in the back of the book) made it sound like it was running right after you finished installing and rebooted :doubt:
Thanks! :nod:
