This is a problem with RH6.2
Open up /etc/hosts and update the first line in it. You should have two
lines in that if you have a N/W card.
My machine says....
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.0.5 mailhub.ebotsoft.com mailhub
In actual when you install these lines say something like
127.0.0.1 mailhub localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.0.5 mailhub.ebotsoft.com mailhub
Which is not correct . The mistake is in the first line.
Just remove that extra entry in the first line and VIOLA!! you should be on
your track after restarting apache ofcourse.
