Question hostname not bringing the Apache test page in CentOS 6.2


Good Morning

[root@centos etc]# dnsdomainname
testcentos.com
[root@centos etc]# uname -n
centos.testcentos.com
[root@centos etc]# cat hosts
127.0.0.1 centos.testcentos.com centos localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
192.168.1.8 centos.testcentos.com centos
[root@centos etc]# service httpd status
httpd (pid 2486) is running...

[root@centos etc]#


If I put 192.168.1.8,127.0.0.1 or localhost in the browser, I am getting the Apache test page. If I put the dns name (testcentos.com) I am getting server not found.

Here is the directives I have put for Listen and ServerName in httpd.conf

Listen centos.testcentos.com:80
ServerName centos.testcentos.com

I am not sure what I am missing. Any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance

cheers

Just found that

centos.testcentos.com

in the browser is bringing the Apache homepage. But If I put only testcentos.com, it is adding www. and it is saying server not found?
