Does anyone have any ideas? FrontPage does everything via HTTP, so if you can surf to your FP-based web site from an external machine, FrontPage should be able to author it from afar as well. Usually when you get that blasted FP error, it means that a) the webserver is configured improperly or b) FP is interpreting access permissions for the web (via .htaccess or the webserver config file) improperly. I've found that the best source of englightenment is the web server's logs. -- Matt Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
