While this may not be what you prefer to do, I would recomment considering using Apache . It's free, it's fast, and it's pretty easy to set up, and since I've never set up a CERN-style httpd, I can't even begin to guess at diagnosing it. Apache, on the other hand, I haven't had trouble with. NCSA (the other of the "big three" of free httpds) I have experience with as well, but I wouldn't recommend it when Apache's available and doesn't seem to have the performance limits I've seen in NCSA. But, maybe someone else has experience w/ CERN. bryan > > Thanks! > > -ben > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > | > Benjamin Tomhave | Shell to DOS...Come in DOS...Do you Copy? > Luther College | > Decorah, IA 52101 | $ rm * .* "Hey, where'd everything go? > tomhavbe@martin.luther.edu | > | > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Bryan K.
