OK :-) Silly question, so I've added a link to http://schoolserver/ which will be a broken link unless you are in a school environment with a school server set to that name. Could distros (like SoaS, or XO targeted builds), change the resolution order through /etc/host.conf (maybe also /etc/nsswitch.conf) so that the check for schoolserver go first to a dns server? If that fails to resolve, a local host file entry could then try to go to the schools moodle server at http://schools.sugarlabs.org/ Hmmm, I guess that's going to mess with browser cookies, but just thought I'd raise the question. I might look at some other old html tricks (but not for this release) that could avoid the broken link. Some dhtml tricks might work hiding the potential error page in a hidden frame and auto switching to the public server URL if the local URL fails. > BTW, did you mean to CC the list?
