Re: HTTP not working

["Eric Niebler" <ericne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I've been running RedHat/Fedora since RH6.2, and I've *never* seen a 
problem like this. I just clean-installed Fedora Core 3, and HTTP is not 
working. I can ping websites, but I can't get to them via HTTP. I can 
FTP just fine. And the strangest thing is, once in a blue moon, I can 
actually get through (slooowly) to a website via HTTP, so it's only 
/mostly/ broken. ??!!

This machine dual-boots with WinXP, and when it's running XP, it has no 
problem getting to the internet via HTTP. So it's not the 
cables/router/DSL modem or my ISP. Is this some strange overeager 
firewall thing? How do I even begin diagnosing this problem?

Any and all suggestions greatly appreciated.
Eric
