Hello,
I have two computers runing Fedora 5. Both are configured in a similar manner with only small hardware differences. I recently installed a printer server and the desktop was set up using CUPS but the laptop has problems. every time I try to start CUPs using http://localhost.localdomain:631/ firefox errors with a "server not found" error and inserts a www between the :// and localhost.
I have seached Firefox and cannot see why this would occur. I did have to change a setting in the security options to allow firefox to connect to local functions. I did not have to do this on the desktop and I did not have to do this on the laptop for Samba.
I know this is (maybe) a Firefox issue but maybe someone here has this problem as well
Thank you
Paul
