I believe I saw a mention of this issue on the list a while ago and it has to do with medusa wanting to use 127.9.9.9 or somesuch as a loopback address, which confounds windows and makes it think you want to connect to something extralocalhost (which btw i understand it shouldn't). I'm guessing, but I imagine you can change occurances of 127.9.9.9 (or whatever it is) to 127.0.0.1 within medusa and see it start to work properly. Once you do, you can submit a patch (lucky you! :-)) -----Original Message----- From: Mika, David P (CRD) [mailto:mika@crdmsx01.crd.ge.com] Sent: Monday, April 10, 2000 4:59 PM To: 'zope@zope.org' Subject: [Zope] running zope-medusa offline Is there a way to run zope-medusa in an offline mode? e.g. I have a w95 laptop and z2.py starts fine if I am either connected to my ISP or LAN, but fails if I am offline--I would like to just access files via 'localhost' and not have to be connected.
