Hi,

The script that resolves those links needs a name, not an IP in the url and 
it can't get that from just the IP. If there is no name defined, it puts 
the IP in twice and that's what breaks it.

Try this type of URL instead...typing it in..not using a "link"

http://207.000.00.00:81/.cobalt/siteManage/www.domainname.com/index.html

note the host portion of the domain..in this case www. That must be there also.

good luck..HTH,
Diana
