Do you have the "mod_fp define" statements in http.conf: <IfDefine MOD_FP> ### These are the Minimum options need by the FrontPage Module. ### With out these options set the FrontPage Client will not be ### able to access the server. AllowOverride All </IfDefine> <IfDefine !MOD_FP> AllowOverride All </IfDefine> ......and start with: /usr/local/sbin/httpd -DMOD_FP At 06:23 PM 4.13.2002 -0400, jim wrote: >My problem wasn't in compiling the ports, and I have similar out put as >what you have below.
