My guess would be that the client is having to do some sort of DNS
resolution in order to make the connection to the server - it is able to
do that when you're connected because it can get to your default DNS
server. You should be able to set up your configuration so that Tomcat is
answering requests on 127.0.0.1 (localhost), but you might have to fiddle
with the browser also so that it doesn't assume the need to do reverse
lookups or any kind of resolution to get to the server. I've had problems
like this before with Netscape. Haven't used IE enough to know if it does
the same thing.
