Dear Readers-

I was able to successfully set up my linux box as a standalone web server for a program I use (for those familiar with crystallography, the program is CNS).  However, I upgraded from Suse 6.3 to 7.0 and now when I try to access the CNS files using my machine as a web server, Netscape says it is unable to locate the server (my machine).  I am including some information from some files and output from some commands to give a little more info.  Any help would be appreciated.  By the way, the program CNS requires perl in order for the web server function to work.

Here's some info about my machine:

Output from ifconfig -a:

Thanks for your help.
