Document root is at /usr/local/httpd/htdocs. There is an index.html page there, which you will likely want to redo to suit your own needs. Other boxes on the same LAN can get to it by http://hostname.
Are you talking about 6.3 or 6.4? I had a number or problems. For example, I wanted to look at the howtos their URL is: http://localhost/howto/en/html/HOWTO-INDEX.html The problem is that there's no /howto/ Alias. So I had to add this to httpd.conf: Alias /howto/ /usr/doc/howto/ Now a bunch of web pages have <A HREF="http://localhost"> in them. Now that won't work over the network, of course. So that's busted too in the 6.3 distribution. For example, the page http://localhost/hilfe/index_e.html has this in the source: <LI><B><A HREF="http://localhost/htdig/search.html">Full Text Retrieval</A> and this: <LI><A HREF="http://localhost/doc/sdb/en/html/index.html"> Support DataBase - local with search</A> Are you saying in your 6.3 distribution this file doesn't contain HREFs pointing to localhost?
