I've downloaded and make'd the latest Apache Server on my Linux system
and would like to run my Netscape browser locally to test the
configuration and play around with CGI, etc.
Do I still configure TCP/IP with a loop back? I don't have an ethernet
board and don't really need PPP since it would be a local connection.
How does one set up a local (same machine) http connection?

lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Bcast:127.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3584 Metric:1
Is this a trick question?Quote:> I don't have an ethernet

1. Local http (with Apache server on Linux)
Just downloaded and made Apache on my Linux machine and am wondering how
one runs http locally. I've got Netscape 3.0 and want to test http, CGI
and whatever other features Apache has without connecting from an
external machine.
Do I use something like the TCP/IP loop-back feature to get my browser
talking to the local Web Server? I don't think PPP is needed here since
its a local connection.
