Hi, I swapped out 'localhost" for '127.0.0.1' in the url but this had no effect. I had a look at my hosts file at c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc and this contained: # Copyright (c) 1993-2006 Microsoft Corp. # # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows. # # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name. # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one # space. # # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual # lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol. # # For example: # # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host 127.0.0.1 localhost ::1 localhost and so this seems fine as well. cheers Mike On Fri, Jan 7, 2011 at 1:25 PM, Daniel Brown <danbrown@xxxxxxx> wrote: > On Thu, Jan 6, 2011 at 21:12, michael manning <michaelgmanning@xxxxxxxxx> > wrote: > > Hi Daniel, > > When testing with the CLI, netstat shows: > [snip!] > > What happens when you swap out 'localhost' for '127.0.0.1' in the > connection routine?
