By test file do you mean the layer preview? That only works on localhost for me, and I haven't seen a way to specify the server anme in the settings.
If some other file we'll need more info to help - can you give us a URL? If you are loading an html file on port 80 with javascript accessing geoserver on port 8080 then that's your problem. You'll need to host the file under geoserver, or use a proxy. charles On Jan 30, 2011, at 7:39 PM, Jay Saltman wrote: > > Hi, > > I worked up a small first time Geoserver project, added a few shapefiles as > a test on my Windows laptop, then signed up for a virtual private server > (with Windows Server 2003).

The best practices for maximizing a physical server's connectivity to a physical network are well understood - see how these rules translate into the virtual world? http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnlfb _______________________________________________ Geoserver-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geoserver-users
