tcp/ip stack issues

2003-02-25 Thread Shital Joshi

hi there,

we are using tomcat for our application. the application should work on all
the windows platforms. now, if the tcp/ip stack is not initialized on
windows 95 (if network card is not present or if the ithernet connection is
not available)
then tomcat fails to start. any solutions?
your help is highly appreciated.

There is a Microsoft component called the Loopback Adapter, which is
basically a dummy network adapter that will allow you to load the TCP/IP
stack and assign an IP address to it.  Add a new network device and
select the MS Loopback Adapter as the HW...

If you don't have a NIC or an Ethernet connection, what's the point?

In my experience, Win95 will still allow you to connect to 127.0.0.1, but in
Win2K you can't even reach yourself without a network connection.  My
solution was to create an Ethernet loopback plug that I stick in my NIC port
and a short time later I can at least access 127.0.0.1.

RE: tcp/ip stack issues

2003-02-25 Thread Shital Joshi

on windows 2000, windows NT and windows XP tcp/ip stack is always
initialized. so no problems even if the NIC or ethernet is not present. only
windows 95, 98 and ME are giving problems. the application only serves
requests which are coming from local host.

if we dynamically initialize the tcp/ip stack, and if the user wants to
connect to internet using AOL or Netzero etc, will the application still
work and will he be able to connect to net??

thanks for your help.
