After removing the firewall, it still failed. This is why I feel it is
either in the box itself (software, config, bad quantum flux capacitor), or
perhaps this is something inherent to certain ADSL modem/routers. I use a
Netopia 3347WG-ENT, on a AT&T ADSL connection. Nothing on my network, that
I know of, has changed, but that is a good idea so I'll call them Monday.
The server has been running on a Dell PE350 with dual NICs, but I was only
using NIC 1.
I ended up doing the following:
1. Manually copy /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 to ifcfg-eth1
2. Edit it accordingly to change DEVICE = eth1 and set the correct IP that
the vsite was assignend
3. Deleted ifcfg-eth0:0.
4. service network restart
I was able to access the virtual site (against the "properly" configured
eth1) and life was good.
Convoluted way to accomplish something that should be simple, but it was all
I can think to make this work. I'm sure it will break again, but I can
script this so that upon reboot, it sets this up how I have it. Now that I
have it working, I can use the other server to take my time to understand
what might be happening, run a packet sniffer, etc.
Thanks,
Ernie
