Networking? : Setting up directory for elink dump

fanoflq · 11-09-2016, 12:44 AM

Say i have 2 VMs, VM1 and VM2.

Code:

On vm2.example.com, I would like to do this:
elinks -dump http://vm1.example.com/my_repos/

I setup the directory, /my_repos, at VM1,
and in it, I created a test file, myfile.

But the elink dump does not work.

What else do I have to do?
Thanks.

You're not very flexible with your descriptions. ...
You try it without the dump switch? Test basic http connectivity otherwise? (firewall???)

Can you navigate http://vm1.example.com/my_repos/myfile in a browser other that from vm2?
Can vm2 ssh (as a test) to vm1 and vice versa? or

Code:

vm1 $ telnet vm2 <port>
vm2 # telnet vm1 <port>

Others might have more interesting questions.
Have a great day.
