A common problem is that the firewall may be blocking access to the web server and mysql server. On CentOS/Fedora you can configure this with the system config:

<pre>

system-config-securitylevel

</pre>

Firewall configuration is specific to different Unix distributions, so consult a guide on how to do this on non-RedHat machines.
