Firefox issues

Post by rajbps »

Hiya I am new to this so sorry if I ask the wrong question.

I build an intranet site with cmsms.

I have a samba share where i have 2 files, .rdp in there.

On the intranet I have a link that points to thise so that when users click the link, it opens the .rdp file to connect to a remote desktop to windows.

It works well with Internet Explorer but does not work at all with firefox, open it in a new window and saying that :

"Not Found

The requested URL /intranet/\\192.168.29.14\Public\Snap Production Access.rdp was not found on this server.
Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) Server at 192.168.29.14 Port 80"

Could anyone advise pls on what could get this sorted pls.

Cheers,

Raj

What about the slashes, you use the 'back slashes' in an URL. Internet Explorer doens't care but I believe Firefox wants the 'forward slashes'.

Sorry, it's a Samba share I understand?

How exactly is the url specified in you code?

<a href="..."

It might also be a security precaution build into Firefox. Could be tricky to let a browser call/open/run/invoke local files.

Why don't you service those rdp files via Apache?
