I just noticed that I can not see any of the websites configured on my two macs using the rendezvous bookmark menu!?

I can access the websites manually and other Rendezvous programs work and the firewall is not on..

Is anyone else having this problem?

You learn something new everyday! Here were I answer my own question...

I had a poke around the httpd.conf file and found this setting for rendezvous:

<IfModule mod_rendezvous_apple.c>
# Only the pages of users who have edited their
# default home pages will be advertised on Rendezvous.
RegisterUserSite customized-users
#RegisterUserSite all-users

# Rendezvous advertising for the primary site is off by default.
#RegisterDefaultSite
</IfModule>

I didn't know that the default page had to be changed. So I went in and added a couple of word to Panthers default index.html page and I can now see my site!

I could have also commented

RegisterUserSite customized-users

and uncommented

#RegisterUserSite all-users

That will allow all the sites to be seen!

Was this behaviour in Jaguar?
