Netscape Proxy Configuration
Follow these steps to turn off the use of a proxy
server for the IP address 127.0.0.1 in Netscape Web browsers.
Not using a proxy server enables
page previewing in the Integrator.
- Start Netscape.
- Select Preferences under the Edit menu.
- Select the "+" icon next
to the Advanced option at the left side of the window,
and select the Proxies option.
- If "Manual proxy configuration" is checked, then
- Click the View... button.
- In the window titled "Exceptions" or "No proxy for",
add the name localhost.
Separate multiple entries with commas (","), e.g. "localhost,netscape.com".
- Click the OK button.
- If "Automatic proxy configuration" is checked, your browser
is set up to be automatically configured. Automatic
configuration is incorrectly redirecting requests for local
Web links (such as http://127.0.0.1:8081, used by the Page Server)
to a proxy server. Report this to your network administrator
to get it fixed. If this cannot be fixed quickly,
you should:
- Make a note of the URL in the entry field under
"Automatic proxy configuration".
- Delete the URL.
- Select "Direct connection to the internet"
- Click the OK button.
When you finish previewing Web pages in the Integrator,
you should re-configure Netscape using "Automatic proxy configuration"
and inserting the URL that you deleted.
- Click the OK button.
- Exit and restart Netscape. (Bugs in some versions of Netscape
prevent changes in proxy configurations from taking effect until
Netscape is restarted.)
