The test host only has one valid DNS name.


Currently testing from the coffee shop and I'm tunneling via ssh.

/opt/rt3/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm has this
Set( $rtname, 'test.example.com');
Set( $Organization, 'RT Rocks');
Set( $WebBaseURL, 'http://test.example.com:8082');

Oddly, sometimes I can connect localhost:8082 with Firefox without
being prompted multiple times and sometimes it takes three times.

Opera nor lynx ever have this problem.

Weird.
