Our webserver is on another server, so localhost will not work." </BLOCKQUOTE> I have had this happen a few times when I make a link on a dynamic page like <a href="<A HREF="http://localhost/nolapro">http://localhost/nolapro</A>"> because I have misconfigured the PHP script to be localhost relative. You can usually configure the IP address of the server in the script or the name of the machine if your /etc/hosts or local DNS is set up for it. It is not that your link icon is not right. It is that the dynamic page your script produces is spitting out localhost. This could be a security feature, preventing access to anyone not on the same server. I often run all my servers on the LTSP machine so localhost works for thin clients but not thick ones or intruders. Is nolapro working for thick clients? If not, this is likely the cause.
