IE is pretty stupid that way.  It does it to me and I am online all the
time. The trick is to put the http:// in there explicitly, then it won't
convert to local:8080

Subject: Re: tomcat on win2k


I have the Tomcat 4.0 Dev nightly build (? - i'd have to check which one)
running on Windows 2000.
I didn't come across any errors.

The only thing I couldn't do was actually view the examples web app using IE
(i
believe 5.5).
IE does not want to let me connect to 'localhost:8080' offline.  It changes
the
address to 'local:8080'.
Running the examples in Netscape 4.01 worked fine though.
