Intranet Access To Suse Apache Server

    I recently set up SUSE 10.1 on an older machine I have. Using XAMPP, I installed Apache, PHP, and MySQL. I then installed Drupal. I can hit Drupal successfully, no problem, by typing localhost into the browser. I can also access Drupal on another computer on my network that has the same type setup, also installed using XAMPP, but that one is running on Windows XP. So far, no problems.

    The issue comes when I try to access Drupal on the SUSE machine from the other PC. I can ping the SUSE PC, no problem. But when I type the IP of the SUSE machine into my browser on the Windows PC, it times out.

    Any ideas on what might be haywire?

    Thanks!

    Did you check your firewall settings? Are you able to access Drupal on XP system from SuSE computer?

    Try telnetting in at SuSE computer

    c:\> telnet suse.server.ip.addr 80

    What do you get?

    Thanks for your suggestion. It turns out the SUSE firewall hadn't been set up properly. I fixed that, and wala--XAMPP and Drupal from another box. :)
