Thank you all and here is a better description.
When I logon to the web I am going through an ISP that (obviously) allows logons. So I enter the web with a user name through that ISP. My home site - the cabonnecreations - is on another server that does not have login capability. So my work within my home site is being done as a user of server_a - the one I logged onto the web as - but now inside server_b the one that has my home site. The protections I am being told about do not sound right to me for a cgi-bin folder. They should be readable by the owner but such protections as 755 or worse will give everyone access to all the cgi scripts that are inside it. That is they can read the things on their home system. An earlier email of mine did say that this cgi-bin folder in my home site is a 711 protection and does contain a file test1.cgi also at 711 protection that does work. So that 500 error MAY be because I am running the script as a world member and trying to access local data that possibly only the user can permit access to? Yes/NO? Using a submit from a form loaded from the site does not change the situation though. cheers Jimmy George @CUDAL -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
