Yes, this message contains in-reply-to/references. The others did not. Which means that there is no threading available for them.

Thank you for the reply. I think it's "server", and even though I select that, it is still blocked. I mentioned being able to ping it because I thought it was a NIC problem or something, because apache didn't work when I started it. Thanks agin for the reply! On 4/7/09, Michael A.

Very few ports are open out of the box. I'm not sure, but I think if you choose the webserver (or is it server ??) option at install it might have port 80 open. Port 22 is open for ssh. I think 631 (cups) is as well, but not positive. You can configure the firewall with system-config-securitylevel-tui after install (it runs during firstboot as well) where you can easily tell it to turn on port 80 (and/or 443) for web services. pinging a box has nothing to do with ports are blocked, open, or closed. You can filter pings but I don't believe the firewall does by default. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] CentOS automatically blocks port 80 out-of-the-box
CentOS does not open ports like that when you install a package, that's something you have to do yourself. I recently heard a podcast (http://twit.tv/floss62) talking about eBox which sounded like a management platform that does something like what you are looking for.
