[users@httpd] from win to linux how to web page
I got Apache in Linux on one box and windows on another box connected via a router. Do I need to enable anything in httpd.conf file to access the Apache web server or the web pages on Linux from the windows? Would anyone know what needs to be done to access a web page from windows on Linux?
Thanks,
gp

Brian, I did have that as well but one of the Linux guys told me to check the "iptables -L" and ipv4 and several others fail to initialize correctly. It suggests either to update the ip tables or the kernel. So, I will have to figure out what is going on with the system.
Appreciate,
george

To see your web server via your LAN for testing, just put the web
address in your hosts file on the winders box. e.g.
addy.of.my.linux www.mydomain.com
This will direct it locally to the server, but preserve the integrity of
the page request, so apache will know which site to serve up.
To use putty to log in, you'll need sshd running on linux. Is that
started?

Well,
I looked into those files by they are empty except comments.
I wonder what it takes to resolve this one, hopefully there is a way to get it working.

my original suggestion was posted to the list as I was having email
problems that day, so I'll paste it below...
----------
Perhaps you need to edit your /etc/hosts.allow file? Some Linux distros
automatically put "ALL:ALL" in /etc/hosts.deny which would block all
traffic unless otherwise specified (which is a good idea). If this is
the case, putting "httpd:ALL" in /etc/hosts.allow would allow people to
access Apache.

Tim,
it just does not want to load. I created an IP that is within my router
and I can ping the Linux box via this new IP but I cannot bring up the
browser on the Windows box, drives me crazy. I do have putty but that
does not connect either.

RE: [users@httpd] from win to linux how to web page
Posted by "David P. Donahue" <dd...@ccs.neu.edu>.
Have you checked your hosts.allow and hosts.deny files? I'm not sure if
my original suggestion was posted to the list as I was having email
problems that day, so I'll paste it below...
----------
Perhaps you need to edit your /etc/hosts.allow file? Some Linux distros
automatically put "ALL:ALL" in /etc/hosts.deny which would block all
traffic unless otherwise specified (which is a good idea). If this is
the case, putting "httpd:ALL" in /etc/hosts.allow would allow people to
access Apache.

Tim,
it just does not want to load. I created an IP that is within my router
and I can ping the Linux box via this new IP but I cannot bring up the
browser on the Windows box, drives me crazy. I do have putty but that
does not connect either.
Thanks,

Tim,
how do you log on from windows to Linux? From a command line?
I setup the virtual host on Apache but still cannot connect. What files do I need to modify on Linux? I modified hosts and network files but so far no success.
Thanks,

Re: [users@httpd] from win to linux how to web page
Posted by Tim Johnson <as...@eggserver.tallships.ca>.
Hi George, I came in late on this, but as long as you have Apache listening on
port 80 (on all IPs that the linux box has, just to be safe) and you verify
that your traceroute to the IP Linux is on is actually the correct machine (can
you log into it from the windows box?) you should be able to connect to it
using http://linux.ip.address/ If you don't have virtual hosts setup, or if you
have your test page setup as the default, you *should* see it.

Your router is doing DHCP? Try all static IPs.

Yes, or I would say so. I set it up so it has its own server name not to defualt to the local host at the prompt and I set up an IP for it but that's not accessible for some reason. But I can ping the IP that the router sets up for the Linux box.
