Thanks, I'll give it a whirl. I appreciate your input.

Thanks a lot for the response. I am using an airport with one port, however. :(

I've got three Macs. Two of them have airport cards (Powerbook and iMac) , the third is an old beige G3 with no airport capability. How can I network the three computers? What I'm particularly interested in is using the G3 as a print server, since my laser printer is hooked up to it. I...

I've discovered if I use the numeric ip address, rather than "localhost" it works. I haven't tried messing with some of the things suggested in the previous post. I'll give those a shot. Thanks.

I have the same problem. I work offline to do php/mysql stuff and now can't point my browser to "localhost", or any variation "http:///", http://localhost/, etc. What gives??
