I recall that I had to set up my IIsi Mac with a shorter and simpler password than I wanted to use. Try keeping the password 8 characters or less. If that does not work, try keeping the password all lower case. Of course, my problems could have caused by the age of my Mac. -- David Raeker-Jordan mailto:rkrjrdn@;epix.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
