Subject: problems with IE4.0 browser settings in LAN test environment

 

Hi,

 

I am a Dutch Minivend user and prior to setting up my own server at my ISP I laid out a small test-LAN of 2 computers: a Linux server on which Minivend runs and a Win98 client for the testing. Suddenly I realised that from IE-4.0 I could only contact the Minivend server by selecting both the option "Connection via LAN" and "Connecting via proxy server" in its options menu!

So: when I use "Connection via LAN" only, I won't get any connection at all. When the second option is added I do get a connection that works fine.

My question: has this anything to do with the fact that I am running Minivend on a LAN, or will future websurfers have to adjust their browsers also after my computer has been installed at my ISP? (I think buyers are likely to stay away when they are asked to change their browser settings...)

I would be grateful if anyone out there could take away this anxiety.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Fred Veenstra, Assen, Holland
