[gopher] Problem reading files on gopher site

[Jeff Greer]

I have the same basic site set up on two servers. The first server located
on a CentOS 7 server works fine.

The second to which I am migrating to displays the files but will not
download them. When a file is selected, I get a Connecting to... displayed
in the Firefox message bar at the bottom. It ultimately times out.
Essentially the same behavior via lynx.

The sites address is: gopher://faroutscience.com

I appreciate your help!
