I am about to trash the whole FBSD 6.2 installation. It is unusually frustrating. I have installed FBSD before and have used it for some years. I am not an expert or programmer. Here are some problems: I can access apache from my windows machine: "It works" But I cannot access http://biggie:10000 - message says: try https://... that does bring up the Webmin page. I know apache listens on port 80, but why https to get the Webmin page? I cannot access http or https://biggie:931 (Swat) "Unable to connect" Is my configuration wrong for samba? What's with the ssl? I tried to reinstall (unsuccessfully -D NOSSL) apache22 without SSL. How can I disable the SSL I don't need SSL as I am using FBSD6.2 only on my local network. On top of this, when I try to stop apache with apachectl stop, apache stops. But apachectl start gives : "[warn] (2) No such file or directory: Failed to enable the 'httpready' Accept Filter" Samba - I can see Samba on the Windows machine, but I cannot connect to access the FBSD machine - it is set up the same as when it worked on the previous installation - security is set for share. I have the impression that all my problems are related to some kind of security overkill. And, I must say, the instructions that I have found on the Web for installation and/or configuration are either too simplistic or too confusing I am having more than headaches and three full days of installing and reinstalling and fiddling without results. I have previously installed 6.2 with apache, xorg, samba and cups without much trouble and it all worked well until my / directory got overloaded - don't know why. So, I thought I would do a clean reinstall of everything using more space on the disk. And now, nothing seems to work quite right - java 1.5 is not istallable - installed fine before with all the sun-java downloads etc. Samba does not work even with the same configuration that had worked before... same for cups and apache22 - all on the same computer with same configuration and using old configuration files as models - all that had worked before. Hope someone can help. :) Phil
