So you cannot access any web page *from* that box either on that box and away ? Please be clear. And when you try to access a page _on_ the box it freezes ? Maybe you have a firewall in between somewhere somehow ? If you're machine is freezing the you have to dig *this* problem. Did you played with sysctl or kernel settings ? Does ftp from or to the box work ? How much RAM do you have ? Did you disable swap ? Do the logs say anything ? > Do I need to add all the websites to the hosts file? Only if you what to access the by name locally and they are Name Based on apache in which case you have to add them to the hosts of all your computers or setup a dns server. > Or the static IP of the box, xxx.xxx.xxx.150?
