Hello,

I hope everyone is well.

I have successfully used Linux (Fedora Core) for several years now as a replacement for a windows server - filtering the net, using it as a home directory for those logging in, etc.

I now have tried to set up a LAMP (essentially just a linux machine that will serve our web sites) using CentOS 5. However, I cannot get the machine to be accessible through the network.

IE: If I am on the machine and visit 127.0.0.1 or the IP of the machine itself, I will get the Welcome to CentOS Apache page. Also I can get webmin working and I can ssh. However, if I am on another machine on the same network, I can ping the linux machine, but putting in its IP gives me nothing - it just times out.

Thoughts? I have disabled SELinux as I thought that might be it but it made no difference. All help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
