Well, at least two mistakes in the above: you didn't use port 8080 in
the second example, and you spelled 'manage' as 'mange'.  With those
typos, maybe you are consistently making similar mistakes when trying
this?

Also, what is "page isn't found"?  You should actually be getting
a "The page cannot be displayed" message from IE6.

By the way, this is not Python related.  Just a basic networking 
or configuration problem or something.
