1 We recommend that all recipient sites set up a proxy web server with caching capability, such as Netscape Proxy server.
2 If possible, all sites should use the same version of Netscape Navigator. This helps to minimize Tango interactions with browser-specific bugs.
3 Use a robust HTTP server to provide the course materials. Our experience suggests that some servers (Netscape Fast Track and Microsoft Peer Web Server) will hang during a typical class. The free HTTP server from Apache has been robust.
