Re: [sentinix-list] Just installed Sentinix, can login locally, but from nowhere else.

Normally this shold not be the case.

I would suggest you run a "netstat -nlptuw" as root on the local
machine and check the output for port 80 and 443.

Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address        
State       PID/Program name
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:80              0.0.0.0:*              
LISTEN      -
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:443             0.0.0.0:*              
LISTEN      -

The 0.0.0.0 indicates its open for all configured IP Address on the
current machine. But if its shows

Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address        
State       PID/Program name
tcp        0      127.0.0.1:80              0.0.0.0:*              
LISTEN      -
tcp        0      127.0.0.1:443             0.0.0.0:*              
LISTEN      -

This means its configured only for localhost and will not be
accessible on any other IP Address.

To fix the problem edit the /etc/apache/httpd.conf Search for "Listen"
variable and edit it to Listen <ip-address-of-your-machine:80>

Restart Apache... apachectl stop; apachectl startssl

This should resolve the issue.

G.
