1 - I meant for you to substitute the ip address for eth0 or eth1 or
whatever the LAN ip address was for the second line in /etc/hosts - not
put it in literally. If that ip address is assigned by DHCP that is a
mistake since running servers is always tough when you can't access them
by ip (forgetting for the moment ddns)
2 - My experience with webmin and the apache module is that it is
helpful when you understand apache setup and confusing when you don't.
Anyway...
you can always use an apache directive...
Alias /horde/ /var/www/html/horde/
to redirect
or in your case, I would prefer to keep the html in the /var/www/html
tree and put a link from your home directory to there
ln -s /var/www/html /home/lokrin/www/www
but of course, you would have to move the contents of
/home/lokrin/www/www to /var/www/html first
or the way you are trying to do things...
ln -s /home/lokrin/www/www /var/www/html/www
The important thing...first and foremost is that you can access via dns
or host resolution...
ping localhost
ping lokrin
if these don't work, apache ain't gonna work.
