[QUOTE="Noelix, post: 153298, member: 18535"] Despite the cryptic message here, this method actually works! The Microsoft Loopback adapter is just a dummy networking adapter (no drivers or hardware required) which people normally set up if they have a SQL server but no network connection. I googled "microsoft loopback adapter" and got several good sites: [url=http://www.windowsitpro.com/Article/ArticleID/14400/14400.html]This one has a broad overview and tells you how to use it.[/url] [url=http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fsupport.microsoft.com%2Fkb%2F839013&ei=wENeRpniDJWSgwPE1Ii5BQ&usg=AFrqEzdtuA6Ce6CekLsXgF3OeBqNOnGMQQ&sig2=CXXD6a8t5s35IffJw3r_oA]This is the microsoft site which tells you how to install it.[/url] In general, you install this dummy adapter, and then in your tv server setup you tell it to point to the web address that you specified during the loopback adapter install. It's single-seat ONLY, so don't plan on multi-seat usage. [/QUOTE]
