I've set up a SuSE based fileserver to replace an older RedHat 5.1 server. I brought both servers home so that I could transfer the users data but on starting the old RedHat server I've discovered that it will not allow me to connect from another machine. The lights on the NIC go out when it reaches runlevel 2 or 3 and an error message along the lines - cannot open http port - FATAL - crops up when samba is started. I can ping 127.0.0.1 ok and ifconfig reports eth0 as ok. Anyone any ideas where I should start looking for the cause of the problem. Dave Williams
