Good - I'm glad this topic has come up: I was just about to submit a
question about the HTTP interface to linuxconf. Is there something =
tricky
to getting it to work? My linux box (running linuxconf 1.11) doesn't =
want
to let me in. Here are the parameters in my "Linuxconf html access =
control"
dialogue box:
network or host: 209.239.xxx.xxx (the IP number of my Windows machine =
from
which I want to access linuxconf via HTTP)
netmask (opt): 255.255.255.0 (the netmask of my subnet)
Both the linux box and my workstation from which I will run linuxconf =
via
HTTP are (obviously) on the same subnet.
Is there anything else that needs be done to make it happen? BTW, the =
error
that I get returned from my web browser is: "A connection with the =
server
cannot be established." Needless to say, I am able to see the httpd =
root on
the linux box with the browser from the Windows workstation, but when I =
add
the ":98" port, I get the error message. Thanks,
