But now I have a different problem. I can no longer see the default host

what virtual host is set to answer for /var/www/html

linux.net, but it does not answer any requests

However, I can no longer see the linux local host site from either the
linux machine or the W2K machine.
Entering http://192.168.0.2/ on the W2K machine simply produces a blank
screen after some delay.

do you have ServerName 192.168.0.2 defined somewhere?

I don't think so. I didn't have ServerName in httpd.conf for this address.
Tux is supposed to listen to everything on port 80.

I tried adding ServerName 192.168.0.2 to httpd.conf, but it did not make
any difference.

SeverName linux.net is defined in httpd.conf
I tried changing it to 192.168.0.1 as well as to 127.0.0.1, but neither
worked.

Entering http://127.0.0.1/ on the linux machine does the same.

do you have ServerName 127.0.0.1 defined somewhere?

I tried changing / adding ServerName 127.0.0.1 to httpd.conf.  It didn't
make any difference.

The tux log does not show a GET request corresponding to either of these
events.  Neither does the apache log.
It looks like the request is not being seen by Tux.

telnet 192.168.0.2 80
GET / HTTP/1.0
Host: 127.0.0.1

(then hit enter twice)

The "80" part doesn't work.
I can start telnet and then open 192.168.0.2.
GET / HTTP/1.0 returns a web page with a directory of the linux machine
"/" before the Host: line can be typed.

I can read file://localhost and get the root directory of the linux  

system

(from the linux system), but,
http://localhost/ just comes back blank.

is it defined in apache as a valid servername?

i.e. ServerName localhost

hosts.conf has

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost linux.net xenodochy.org
ballroomdances.org
