help with apache

[Scott Berry]

Hi Mike,

I have one question here when you say make sure your not connected to the 
Internet can you be more specific.  Are you just saying that if I disable 
the ipv6 stuff that will be fine or what exactly are you getting at here. 
Also how would one turn off selinux from the command line I believe I turned 
it off when I installed but I would like to make certain I did.

Scott
