I wasn't using the term loopback formally. It sounded like you went out to the machine in your test, then "looped back" into your network.
Re-reading your message, I'm not sure you did that exact test - namely, connecting to her machine then trying an outbound connection to somewhere else. Is the WinMe machine the one FROM which she is using the java viewer? or was she connecting TO the WinMe box from somewhere else? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Network Helpme" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday/2002 January 24 11:41 Subject: Re: java.net.socketException: SocketThread Failed : yes she was just using the web browser applet. Ill suggest she try the : viewer. what do you mean by loopback in this context?
