Since it was a new install, I removed the ports and then installed the apache13-fp port. This time I tried it right "out of the box" and was able to use the FP client to access my root web. Then I added a few name-based virtual webs to httpd.conf, restarted apache, and then installed the extensions on them using the fp_install.sh script and that work as well. What I found interesting is that after that, any attempts to access the root web were directed to the virtual web listed first in httpd.conf. This is probably by design but I could find it in the apache docs. Anyway, I created another virtual web to point to my root web and listed it first. Now things are working as I expect. However I can't access the admin pages installed on port 10865. I can access them from the FP client on port 80 in the root web (/usr/local/www/data) but not from /usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/admin-exe. I can also access them from the FP client for all of the virtual webs. Have you had any success with the port 10865 admin pages? I wonder what I'm missing, if anything? Thanks, Drew
