Hi Cro

I should have said that I have DNS on a seperate server and its fine. I can 'dig steve.festinalente.co.uk' from any machine on the network and it resolves to 192.168.1.2 including on my machine itself.

I stuck a small index.html in pages. Now if I telnet to the machine and request the page, it is served:

telnet steve.festinalente.co.uk 8000
Trying 192.168.1.2...
Connected to steve.festinalente.co.uk (192.168.1.2).
Escape character is '^]'.
GET / HTTP/1.0

But if I make the same request from any browser http://steve.festinalente.co.uk:8000/ it just spins eventually coming back with connection refused. But if I ask for http://192.168.1.2:8000/ it works? I have tried this with 3 different browsers.

Something somewhere is screwed. The investigation continues :-)
