RE: Hang on Cisco Documentation
The address is correct for this. Since the doc CD uses HTML, it will appear as a local website, which can use the loopback address. I agree to check your proxy settings. If you are using a proxy server, configure the settings to not use the proxy for the 127.0.0.1 address so it can be pulled up locally. Since your OS is Win98, there is nothing you need to do in the registry. I have used IE (which Cisco says to use Netscape) successfully with the CD, so the browser shouldn't be a factor here. The curious thing to me is the fact that the problem is intermittent. Oh well, check your proxy settings and see if this doesn't help Rik Guyler! > -Original Message- > From: Brant Stevens [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, August 01, 2000 9:50 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Hang on Cisco Documentation > > Are you serious?!?!

Re: Hang on Cisco Documentation
Are you serious?!?! Firewalling on 127.0.0.1?!?! I don;t think so... That's the loopback address!!! Most likely, there is a problem in the registry of the WS... I know there's an issue with Windows 2000 and the documentation CD... it has to do with the registry's location of IE... anyways... - Run regedit - Locate HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/IE4/Setup/Path - Change the value from "%programfiles%\Internet Explorer" to the location where IE is installed on your system, for example "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer".

Re: Hang on Cisco Documentation
If you're using a proxy server, be sure that the ip address 127.0.0.1 doesn't use it. cvp [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Nemeth) on 07/26/2000 04:57:24 PM Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Nemeth) To: "myccie Lian" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc:(bcc: Claude-Vincent PEREZ/JP-TOKYO-HOLDING/LVMH) Subject: Re: Hang on Cisco Documentation On Dec 9, 5:49pm, "myccie Lian" wrote: } } My PC is Win98 after I installed cisco documentation CD and launch CD. } Sometimes it works that I can access the CD but sometimes when I click } on a } link it appear "Connect: host 127.0.0.1:8080 contacted.
