Re: OWAS 3.0 / 3.0.1

You may try to add the the name of <my computer> to the hosts file. If you do not include this, the system just cannot find the host name. For instant, if you create the following as your web server:

     my_computer.com

You should add the following entry to the hosts file:

   127.0.0.1 localhost my_computer.com

You should also know about your networking archtecture. Then, you'll know whether you'll user proxy or not.
