Michael http://127.0.0.1:901 works!! brilliant
However, in case this is helping anyone else my /etc/hosts file contains 192.168.1.102 Prospect3 192.168.1.100 Prospect2 192.168.1.101 Prospect1 localhost 192.168.1.101 Prospect1.Prospect Prospect 2 and 3 were entered by my to see my windoze machines, the other two lines were already there. and /etc/resolv.con contains nameserver 194.168.8.100 nameserver 194.168.4.100 nameserver 194.168.4.100 (I have a Linksys DSL lan router/hub acting as DHCP server.) As far as I am aware I have no DNS server running at present (stage 3 when I get to implement a firewall for the network.)
