All I did was add one valid host to the default config file, so it complains about the bogus one obviously but not the valid URL
My config file looks like this (see below) Where I have added a valid url www.LiveTechnology.com which does resolve on the server. I'm not sure if it is rude to attache files on a list like this, could someone pls let me know if I would be irritating someone if I attached some of my config files ? Thanks Warrick Config file starts here menu = UCL title = UCL host = www.ucl-abc.acc.uk ++ USA menu = North America title =North American Connectivity +++ MIT menu = LT title = LiveTechnology host = www.livetechnology.com +++ IU menu = IU title = Indiana University host = www.iu.ali +++ UCB menu = U. C. Berkeley title = U. C. Berkeley Webserver host = www.berkly.udi +++ UCSD menu = U. C. San Diego title = U. C.
