I know that I am forgetting something really simple, but Mozilla doesn't seem to be able to resolve localhost. Everything works fine if I enter 127.0.0.1, however. Netscape 4.76 works fine with localhost, as does Konquerer. What am I missing here? -ronc

No problems here, but I enter http://linux:10000 or http://localhost:10000.

Ive had the same issue with all versions of Mozilla. http://localhost:80 http://localhost never resolve. http://myip always works. Strange. Anyone have a solution for us dolts..:) Stock install. Chris Herrnberger
