Hi Paul,

Thank you for answering.

I tried you proposal, though with a windows IIS server.
1. My computer name was set to Blackbox and the IIS server was started.
2. I started a explore browser on Blackbox and entered http://Blackbox, but
the page would not load.
3. In the browser I wrote http://192.168.1.30 and a login screen was
displayed. (192.168.1.30 is the IP of Blackbox)

Have I done something wrong or?


.... just forgotten to add the 'blackbox' name to the local dns or hosts
file.
