Well, lesson learnt.
So, now, I'm nursing back up a RedHat9 box, trying to make it secure *and* accessible. I would love to put Fedora Core, or even Debian, but the RAID drivers are proprietary, and I haven't seen any for Fedora yet.
Anyway, when I installed RH9, I chose the "high" security setting, and told it to listen for web traffic (port 80). There was a field below that for adding other ports to open, but I didn't fill it in. Now that everything's running, locally I can get to all the web and mysql stuff, but other computers can't even pull up a static HTML page. If I turn the firewall to medium, it doesn't help, but if I turn the firewall off, it works. I found out, much too late, that the little "Add other ports" field is not shown in the utility after install (but was in RH8???), so I can't add ports through the RH config tool.
So, do any of you remember any RH9 tricks, or should I just turn off the firewall, and install my own iptables?
