You do need to ensure you have some type of adapter installed. If you do not have a physical network card, then you can install the ms loopback adapter,
along with tcp/ip and client for ms networks, and file/printer sharing.
Thank you. I hope this information is helpful.

| You do not need to do dialup to have a test environment.
|
| All you need is to have a web server installed, and place your pages/script
| where they're supposed to. Access the web pages from the browser via
|
http://localhost/mypage.php and it should all work. You do not even need
| to be online for this to work; in fact, if you go online, your ISP may block
| port 80 access and prevent you from accessing your own webserver on the same
| machine.

| Thanks for the help. The netbios name didn't work, but a
| friend suggested that I try
|
|
http://localhost/localstart.asp
|
| which did get me to the welcome page I was looking for.
| I'm trying to do this install using instructions from a
| VERY bad PHP/MySQL book and NOTHING works the way the
| book describes.
|
| Don't worry, I'm not trying to host a web site via
| dialup - I'm just trying to get a test environment up on
| my laptop.
