6. Browsers
Both Netscape Navigator™ and Microsoft Internet Explorer have bugs that can
cause intermittent, unexplained failures. When using a Web browser to interact
with your Sun Cobalt RaQ XTR server appliance, you may occasionally
experience a browser failure. Released product versions of the browsers are
usually more reliable than beta versions and later versions typically work the
most reliably. A browser program failure, although annoying, does not adversely
affect your server appliance’s data.
To use the server appliance, you need a personal computer (attached to the
network) that uses a Web browser (for example, Netscape Navigator, version 4.7
or later, or Microsoft Internet Explorer, version 5.0 or later). To manage the
server appliance from the browser-based user interface (UI), known as the Server
Desktop, you must enable cookies, cascading style sheets and Javascript on your
browser (these features are normally enabled by default).
