K followed the following to setup LAMP server http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_debian_lamp_server Also installed phpmyadmin, webmin, both work great but my problem is when i try to access the server i need to enter the ip address not the name hostname = server1.navop.ca ---> IP = 192.168.23.200 So if i want to log into webmin i need to use the following https://192.168.23.200:10000 I want to be able to do it using the hostname my hosts is as follows 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.23.200 server1.navop.ca server1 # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts Thanks
If accessing the server from itself then that will work, if you are accessing from a different machine that machine needs to be configured as well to resolve the name.
I'm trying to access this site from another computer running Windows XP sp 2. someone told me to look for hosts, under windows and configure it. Looked for it and never found the file. Thanks.
