I want to write CGI programs in python for my personal use to be executed from my browser on my home LAN. If I run CGIHTTPServer.py it says that it is listening on port 8000. If I then try to access a file in /cgi-bin netscape simply displays the file. If I try to access the file using http protocols then netscape responds that it is 'unable to locate the server mareschal' which is the name of the machine on which I am running both CGIHTTPServer.py and netscape. What am I doing wrong? I suppose that there are config files somewhere that need tweaking, but what are they? My /etc/hosts file contains:
mareschal:$ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost loopback 192.168.0.1 mareschal 192.168.0.2 alexander # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts # (added automatically by netbase upgrade) ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts and /etc/hostname contains: mareschal:$ cat /etc/hostname mareschal What else do I need to change? -- Marc Shapiro "If you drink melomel every day, [EMAIL PROTECTED] you will live to be 150 years old, Please visit "The Meadery" at: unless your wife shoots you." http://www.bigfoot.com/~m_shapiro/ -- Dr. Ferenc Androczi, winemaker, Little Hungary Farm Winery
