Can anyone tell me why some servers don't respond when I try to
load them with Linux (of course they do when I use 'Doze). Try
www.oetker.de for example... there's a connection, but I don't
receive any data. Or at www.ltu.de I send the request, but don't
get a response. By the way, I'm not behind a firewall...

All code generators leave you with HTML pages that
1. have some * bug waiting to look ugly on somebody else's browser
2. are pure hell to fix unless you have the same generator, same
version, same platform, same everything as the original developer did
when generating the page.
HTML generators dumb down the craft of web design while creating a whole
new set of problems. They are a scourge upon the Internet. Front Page is
worse than the others in that every FP-generated page looks as
amateurish as all the other FP-generated pages everywhere in the world.
Friends don't let friends use Front Page, and they discourage them from
using the other generators (Dreamweaver comes to mind).

It turned out to be that the hostname I had given my machine did not
match the one in our DNS and some pages wouldn't load because of that.
As soon as I renamed my machine properly, everything started working.
It's funny that a Windows machine using the same IP address would be
able to load these pages no matter what hostname I gave it. I guess
Nestcape for Windows and for Linux use different mechanisms to get the
hostname of the machine they're running on.

and try again
I nearly went nuts trying to figure out why my winblows box that is behind my
machine could see some site but my own box that was doing the masquerading
couldn't. ECN was the culprit...

Last night I decided my "workstation" (386dx-33, Linux .99pl7A) was
ready for real work...
I slept like a baby :^). Cheers, all.
Nick
p.s. As I mentioned above, I'm running .99pl7A, SoundBlaster support*
and mount patches in kernel, 8 megs RAM, two 2efs and one swap
partition (across two hard drives), X on a Trident 8900C, and okay
output from my Panasonic KX-P1123 (PostScript!). No real problems so
far... Many, many thanks to everyone who made this "revolution"
possible.
* Can anyone point me in the direction of something that will play
.wav or .voc files?
