I have two computers that I loaded Fedora on. I am trying to get the web browser to show the localhost but keep getting the Connection Refused message on both machines. If I use http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 I get the connection refused. If I use Telnet to connect I get the connection refused message too. If I try rlogin I get the connection refused message. I was trying to get Samba and Swat working so http://localhost:901 was one of the first addresses I tried and got the connection refused message. I am able to connect to the machines with ssh and from a Windows machine using PuTTY. The desktop machine has the following in its hosts file: # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will vail. 127.0.0.1 hpvli8ux localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.1.12 vetts I have the firewall turned off. Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution? I've tried google searches but haven't found a solution yet. Also, is there a way to search the archives for this maillist?
