- Subject: NCSA WinMosaic help request
-
- I have MCSA Mosaic v. 2.0 alpha for MS Windows and I have been unable to
- get it to communicate with the outside world. I am running Chameleon 4.0
- and can use all my other applications including Cello WWW for Windows. The
- error I get is "Unexpected network read error on HTTP response!".
-
- It sounds like a configuration problem, but I believe I followed the
- directions correctly. Any insight and help would be greatly appreciated.
-
- Thanks in advance, Bill

- One problem I've had reported to me today is that Chameleon doesn't handle
- hostnames with a trailing dot. Apparently the RFCs allow this, and some
- stacks (mine is SuperTCP) handles it just fine. The problem occurs with some
- Gopher servers.
