Well it sounds like a DNS issue for sure, at least in part.

What you can try is to use the IP of the box in the browser (i.e.
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/index(.php or .html) etc.) and if that works you'll =
know
if it's just the DNS issue.  If it doesn't work then it's likely a
combination of several issues.

You can at least start to narrow it down then.

Subject: [users@httpd] Moving apache from one host to another

Hello,
We are currently running Apache 1.3.19 on an HP-UX 11.00 machine. I=92m =
new at
creating web servers, so please bear with me!=20
I have moved it to a new server =96 renaming the ServerName variable =
(from
my.oldhost.name.edu to my.host.name.edu) in the httpd.conf file.=20
I=92ve also added port 5556 to the new /etc/services file as the apache
port.=A0=A0 I can successfully start and stop apache =96 without any =
errors.
However, when I try to access the server via the browser I run into
problems.=A0=20
If I use IE I get an error that says =91Cannot find server or DNS =
error=92.
If I use Netscape I just get an error pop-up box that says the =
connection
was refused.
I=92m just typing in the hostname on the browser =96 ie.
http://my.host.name.edu.=A0 If I type http://my.host.name.edu:5556 I get =
the
same errors.
Do I need to re-run the configure, make and make install steps?=A0 The =
doc.
makes it sound like I can change httpd.conf without re-doing any of =
that.
Any ideas as to what I can do would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
