Happy holidays!

I have installed the Oracle Web Application Server on a SUN server at work and I could access it from work:

http://ip_address:8888/ows-abin/boot

I also tried to access it from home:

http://ip_address:8888/ows-abin/boot

I get error message from Internet Explore 4.0:

The request did not specify a valid virtual host.

The connection from home to work is through Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) / virtual private network (VPN). We use NT 4.0 at work and I use Window 98 at home.

Does anyone have any clue as to what the problem might be related?

Thanks a lot!
