Re: [Summary-Talk] Summary/Browser/Router prob

[Jason Linhart <jason@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you are accessing Summary from the same machine that it is running on 
then you can always use the address 127.0.0.1 with the correct port 
number (normally 9000). This, and other related work arounds, are 
discussed in the FAQ, <http://summary.net/manual/faq.html#connect>.

If you are accessing Summary from outside your local network, you must 
configure your router to allow packets to reach Summary from outside. 
Exactly how you do that varies dramatically from router to router.

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
