[QUOTE="Template, post: 1713323, member: 376185"] Hello everyone I am experiencing some issues on my LAN network from my mac book pro. I am trying to connect to LAN servers on various different pieces of software running on different machines but my mac is unable to pickup and connect to the external servers on 127.0.0.1. I have the suspicion that it could be something to do with my localhost connection. I cannot connect to 127.0.0.1 when I use “Ping 127.0.0.1” or “Ping Localhost”, it returns nothing. Further information; I can connect to the internet fine. I have a default hosts file I have disabled my firewalls and my little snitch program I am running a Mac book pro on OSX Mavericks 10.9.2 Here are a few commands that I have found from other support threads that could be relevant in diagnosing the problem, Dig localhost ifconfig P.S there is not any information in that code that people could use for malicious attacks is there and If there is could you be kind enough to let me know? Thank you, T [/QUOTE]
