linux.net, but it does not answer any requests

I don't think so. I didn't have ServerName in httpd.conf for this address.
Tux is supposed to listen to everything on port 80.

I tried adding ServerName 192.168.0.2 to httpd.conf, but it did not make
any difference.

SeverName linux.net is defined in httpd.conf
I tried changing it to 192.168.0.1 as well as to 127.0.0.1, but neither
worked.

I tried changing / adding ServerName 127.0.0.1 to httpd.conf.  It didn't
make any difference.

The "80" part doesn't work.
I can start telnet and then open 192.168.0.2.
GET / HTTP/1.0 returns a web page with a directory of the linux machine
"/" before the Host: line can be typed.

hosts.conf has

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost linux.net xenodochy.org
ballroomdances.org
