Viewer Question: I have Ubuntu 10.04 running as a basic server, but I can't seem to access any of the services on it from the network. I can ping the server, but can't browse to things like Apache. It doesn't have any firewall installed. Can you help?
Viewer Question: Thank you for your help in getting my second hard drive working in fstab using a UUID. It works! I was able to move some of my user folders to the hard drive and make a symlink, but the Virtualbox VMs folder didn't work. Can you help?
