Yes, I think the question implied in my rambling monologue is "How would one specify a URL in a browser or from a script so that the local machine doesn't look at it's IP table or whatever and say, 'Hey, that's me. I don't have to go over the Internet for this.'" I suspect there's probably a different way of doing this like disabling the local loopback in the network interface but such is beyond me. -Tom ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
