If I try to access the internal IP address of the server machine (http://10.0.5.30) then I get the error message "Netscape is unable to locate the server: cc-30.tiu.co.uk" which is the URL that I use on the server to access webDB! This would seem to suggest that there is at least some communication going on between client and server.
