Hi Andrea, Andrea Zagli wrote: > how can i bypass the ip match control? in my host.xml file there's no > ip, i have only host names You cannot - at least not directly. WPKG first tries to match your host name directly to the name specified in the hosts.xml file. If the host file matches the host-name 1:1 (character-by-character) then no IP match is done. If it does not match directly (e.g. if you use regexp) then WPKG tries to read the IP of the machine and match the hostname to the IP string (this part fails on W9x). If still no match is found then the host definition is interpreted as a regular expression and matched against the hostname again. As I wrote there is no negative effect besides that the IP-matching does not work on W9x. In case you insert complete hostnames into hosts.xml then no error should be logged. br, Rainer |
