tcp/ip stack issues
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. -shital - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: tcp/ip stack issues
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...

Re: tcp/ip stack issues
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. - Original Message - From: Shital Joshi [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'Tomcat Users List' [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 25, 2003 11:10 AM Subject: tcp/ip stack issues 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. -shital - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: tcp/ip stack issues
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. -Original Message- From: Ian Hunter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 25, 2003 11:11 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: tcp/ip stack issues If you don't have a NIC or an Ethernet connection, what's the point?
