Unless domain monger is on some fancy new version of the internet, you can't just choose arbitrary ports for your website and expect the browser to automatically figure it out. The browser will send the request to port 80, unless told otherwise in the URL line. So you can LINK to http://whatever:where-ever just fine. But going to http://whatever won't work if the server isn't listening on port 80 for that site. _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Help beta test TCLUG's potential new home: http://plone.mn-linux.org Got pictures for TCLUG?
