Not able to connect (was: OT: NFS SERVER UP)
AHA! I'm not the only one who has/had problems. I will tell you what I did
to fix in on XP PRO.
Using Notepad, open the hosts file in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\
after this line:
127.0.0.1 localhost
ad this line:
208.252.99.15 scirocco.org
Good Luck,
Chris Z. AKA "Scirocco"
PS. I hope you've practiced the rally, that's what's on there now.
