The error message is:
Netscape was unable to connect to "...", The connection was refused by the
server, please try again later.
For some strange reason, It seems that the Macs are unable to route beyond
our local subnet.

Subject: Re: (PM) Mac OS 7.5
Your secondary DNS server is down or unreachable, and the clients have
MacTCP misconfigured. MacTCP has a pretty strange configuration. Often,
I've seen it configured as this:
mydomain.com 123.45.67.89
. 98.76.54.32
When it's set up this way, anytime they try to access a site on the
mydomain.com domain, it will use the 123.45.67.89 DNS server. Everything
else it uses the 98.76.54.32 one. If this secondary server goes down, they
won't be able to look up any URL's outside of mydomain.com. You need to
set them up like this:
mydomain.com 123.45.67.89
. 123.45.67.89
. 98.76.54.32
