Debug Intranet ASP.NET Applications for Safari

I have an asp.net intranet application for job bookings and phone zip code. Most of my users are fine now as they use Firefox and Internet Explorer. I have a user who can only use Safari and for some reason, when we go to the intranet, Safari seems to download a lot and then says; "Safari could not open the page http: // mywebserver / " because the server is not responding. "

While the short answer is to force the user to use a different browser as a programmer, I am interested in why this is happening in the first place, and what I can do now and in the future to detect and redirect where my asp applications need to be. net could also work in Safari.

I am also wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to how I can get this asp.net app to run for this user in Safari. We tried to navigate to the site using the machine name and IP address and still get the same response.

Many thanks,

Barry

Are you using ISA firewall and user impersonation in your ASP.Net application? I have seen problems with safari crashing when trying to authenticate through ISA Server.



Make sure the local addresses are bypassing the proxy server, which may resolve the issue.
