Hi
this is only applied in PPC Emulator. But if you can't found problem, try
connection with loopback adaptor.
Configuring a loopback adapter under Windows 2000
Like any network adapter, installing a loopback adapter is only half of the
process. You also need to configure your new adapter. Perform the following
steps to configure the loopback adapter:
1.. On the Start menu, click Settings, point to Network and Dial-up
Connections, and then click Local Area Connection. The Local Area Connection
Status dialog displays.
2.. Click Properties. The Local Area Connection Properties window
displays.
Note Check to make sure that you are working with the right connection.
The Connection Using field of this dialog should read "Microsoft Loopback
Adapter".
3.. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and then click Properties. The
Internet Protocol window displays.
4.. Configure the IP address properties.
5.. Click OK to close the Internet Protocol window.
6.. Click OK to close the Local Area Connection Properties window.
7.. Click Close to close the Local Area Connection Status window.
