If I tried a random IP address, it worked fine. I traced this to the fact that I had static DNS configured on my windoze client. Is that expected behaviour?

Your webbrowser will try to resolve the hostname and when it can't, it doesn't know what IP to connect to. -- Men are from Earth. Women are from Earth. Deal with it. |
