I use Frontpage extensions with 2.1.5-RELEASE on a daily basis, and so do my users. Download the one for BSDI 2.x and you're on your way. Believe me, FreeBSD *is* a supported OS ... ;-) There is _one_ problem though. Frontpage uses a different password encryption scheme to generate its passwords. The password you use for the Frontpage "admin" (generated on the PC you're using and then saved to the /data dir of the web site). The fix for this is simple. Just use a password for the Frontpage admin that you used for the webmaster (or another user). Then cut-and-paste that password into the following file (replacing the old encrypted password). This is where mine lives, anyway (once inside the /data dir, all will be the same): /usr/local/www/data/_vti_pvt/service.pwd Good luck. =========Dan=Benjamin==========dan@void.net========= George Orwell was an optimist. ====================================================
