Can someone tell me how to do this? - what are the default permissions to allow something to be viewed? - do I need a . file of some sort so that people can browse it or something? :-) Every attempt I've had so far has come across some form of 'you do not have permission' message..... Any and all help would be gratefully recieved :-) regards james To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
