Confirming with Mozilla trunk binary 2002051408 on WinNT, Linux.
OS: Win ---> All.

Site puts up an error for any browser that does not support
|document.all| (IE-only) or |document.layers| (NN4 only):

http://147.102.210.2:4505/ALEPH appears to be down -- connection refused.
147.102.210.2 = dione.lib.ntua.gr

http://www.lib.ntua.gr/eale.htm has a link to that site.

Note that bug 158389 uses the same ALEPH library catalog system. Creating an
Authors bug to cover all similar bugs.

http://dione.lib.ntua.gr:4505/ALEPH isnt working for me at all, no matter what
browser I use. Everything else seems to work fine now. Anyone can confirm?

The library directory moved to:
http://aleph.lib.ntua.gr:8992/F?RN=57518631
which seems to work OK. It'd be better if a native Greek speaker verified this, though.

I am Greek speaker and also student at NTUA, so I confirmed that everything (appearance of the page and login) works OK at http://aleph.lib.ntua.gr:8992.
