Paul,

How about running this command in the QuickScript window again:

tcp.myDottedID()

Last time it turned out the IP address wasn't what you expected. Could 
it be there's more than one IP address configured on this box? And that 
FileMaker is binding to one IP but Frontier to another?

When you say "can't get to it", what error exactly are you seeing? And 
are you using the localhost (127.0.0.1), the IP address you expect 
Frontier to respond with, or the domain name?

Assuming your seeing a browser/DNS  error and not a  Frontier error, 
this suggests suggest to me that Frontier is fine and we're missing 
something about your DNS or TCP/IP config.

Me too.
