Desktop won't connect

 [1/5] from: robert::lancaster::opennw::com at: 18-Apr-2001 15:11


Hi Ho Folks, just got view 1.1 for the PC. I'm having trouble getting Desktop to connect to the internet. i.e. I click on "local"... then something times out and I get "Cannot Connect. Working Offline" appear in the Status text. I'm running windows NT, at work, across the company LAN. I can read web sites such as ( x: read http://www.msn.com ) with no problems, so I don't think it's an obvious networking fault. Though I don't have access to a pop/smtp server cos work has these turned off. They are running an MS mailserver only. Am I missing something here???? Is the Desktop supposed to be working or is it just a demo at the moment? or Do I need to get the View/pro license in order for it to work.... Yours Confused.... Rob Lancaster

I think rebol.com has a problem at present. -- Graham Chiu

Okay, Thanks... It's good to know I'm not going completely mad.

Hmmmm.... While running NT 4.0 across the coporate LAN, I found that, in order to get DESKTOP to connect to the web correctly I had to bypass the proxy. Hope this helps some one somewhere...
