Netscape* Configuration

Follow each step below to fully configure the Netscape WWW browser.

  1. If you have an NNTP server, enter the name of your NNTP server in OPTIONS | PREFERENCES | Directories, Applications, and News section. Replace the default value (news) with your NNTP server hostname.
  2. If you have an SMTP server, enter the name of your SMTP server in OPTIONS | PREFERENCES | Mail and Proxies section. Replace the default value (mail) with your SMTP server hostname. Next enter your full name and Internet email address.
  3. Contact your LAN or WAN administrator if your site uses firewalls.

Using Your WWW Browser

Use these directions to confirm that your WWW browser is fully configured.

  1. To read news, use the URL: news:newsgroup. The newsgroup comp.sys.novell is where many internet users talk about Novell products.

    NOTE: using a newsgroup wildcard (e.g. comp.sys.*) will download all newsgroups with their one line description and display only those newsgroups that match the wildcard. This may be as more than 250K if your news server provides a full news feed.

  2. To send mail, use the URL: mailto:user@domain.
