I'm not sure what's causing your error, but I'm sure it's easily fixed... One thing you should check before you fire it up is whether it's been patched for a little bug that was posted to Bugtraq last week. There's a patch available; you should be able to find it on the archives at www.geek-girl.com... Charles On Sat, 28 Jun 1997, Nathan Dorfman wrote: > Hi!
