Re: localhost [OT] win98 reference

Google search is our friend:

finds this doc:

remember you can have more than one name per ip, this is useful for 
vhosting.

If you're running MSW98, my memory is you don't have this in a file.
It's the kind of thing you'd find in the "registry", however. What key,
I don't remember. Nor do I remember if you can get at it by
right-clicking on youy "My Network" icon or digging around in the
ethernet/TCP-IP dialogs in your system control panel (where you would
have set the IP address). Maybe it's hard-wired. But if it were
hard-wired in, your box should respond to localhost and 127.0.0.1.

Can your box access itself at http://127.0.0.1?
