Just starting out with Linux. I have a system that was installed with 7.1
and then shortly after upgraded to 7.3.
I started configuring basic things such as Apache and Samba and immediately
ran into a strange problem:
Apache starts up fine, but if I try to access the default test page from the
host system using Mozilla, I get the error message
401.2 Unauthorized: Logon Failed due to server configuration
If I try from Kongueror, I get the error message
An error occurred while loading
http://linux00
Unknown Authorization method!
Netscape works fine without any error.
If I try to launch SWAT, I get similar behavior.
Now here is where it gets really weird. From a Win2k machine on the same
network, I can launch SWAT and access the test web page using IE 5.5;
however, it complains about a problem with a digital certificate name. I can
just accept it and everything is fine. The message claims I have a
certificate created by localhost.localdomain.
Any idea what is going on here and how to correct it?
