YOU ARE NOT GOING TO THE REDHAT SITE the docs (in html
format) are on your machine.
Try this. Open a terminal and su to root.
type this as root -> kwrite /etc/hosts
delete the adelphia stuff (leave the localhost) ->
then save
try to surf . if still unable ,try shutting down
iptables w/ this command as root
-> /sbin/service iptables stop ( you should see it say
ok )
try to surf.
if able to. try the site i gave previously.
Shutting down iptables is NOT a permanent solution.
You may want to remove the RedHat firewall and try
another. I gave a suggestion previously.
Hope This Helps
