When your Web server encounters an error, it will log the error into a file. What the file is named, and in what directory it's located, depends on how your Apache installation is configured. The error logged by the server may help you determine the cause of the problem.
(edit)
Local loopback does not seem to be working, and I can not access any https pages from the server.
The loopback adapter appears to be working fine, judging from the "ifconfig" output. You can probably
ping 127.0.0.1 without errors. The Web server configuration and setup is what needs to be fixed.
From your "ifconfig" output, the server's eth0 interface appears to be receiving an IP address from the Linksys. Is the Linksys connected to the Internet via a cable/DSL modem? And most importantly, is the Linksys doing NAT as well as DHCP for the machines connected to it?
If it is, then there's no need for the server to be doing NAT at all.
You should probably explain your LAN topology (how many machines, how they're interconnected) and your Internet connection (how many routeable IP addresses, what's directly connected to the DSL or cable modem), as well as your goals as far as external access to the server are concerned.
It sounds like you need to do port forwarding from the Linksys to the RH server, but without knowing how everything's interconnected, that's just a guess.

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /mod_ssl:error:HTTP-request on this server.
Apache/1.3.31 Server at localhost Port 8443
What's logged in httpd/access.log and error.log when that happens?
(You'll likely need to look at httpd.conf and look for "ErrorLog" and perhaps "CustomLog" to find out where the logs are named and located!)

Can you tell me how the server's NAT should be configured when the
server is connected to a Linksys router and assigned an internal IP address.
thanks
