However, I found a solution for it, if I chnage 127.0.0.1 to localhost in the link after I double click the icon, it works. It is not good though I have to manually change it every time when I double click the icon. Or is there any way to let the link automatically points to localhost, not 127.0.0.1</P><P>I tried to reinstall, the same.</P><P>Window 2003.</P><P>Any idea on why and better fixes to the issue?</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 05 Jun 2025 05:47:43 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/Data-Protection/have-to-change-quot-127-0-0-1-quot-to-quot-localhost-quot-to-make-SM-work-why/m-p/60276#M5510 CITMAGIC123 2025-06-05T05:47:43Z Re: have to change "127.0.0.1" to "localhost" to make SM work, why? https://community.netapp.com/t5/Data-Protection/have-to-change-quot-127-0-0-1-quot-to-quot-localhost-quot-to-make-SM-work-why/m-p/60281#M5511 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>have you experienced similar issues?</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 09 Jan 2014 20:26:55 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/Data-Protection/have-to-change-quot-127-0-0-1-quot-to-quot-localhost-quot-to-make-SM-work-why/m-p/60281#M5511 CITMAGIC123 2014-01-09T20:26:55Z
