Sorry that I'm such a beginner. I understand that I can take off all refernces to "index.html" and I will and that will probably solve what was a problem, but I'd like to understand a bit more: My start urls will be various sites belonging to separate users but on the same server... e.g., http://my.school.edu/~user1 (that will get the index page from the stus public_html folder in that home dir) http://my.school.edu/~user2, http://my.school.edu/~user3 and so on, up to 50 users. I do NOT have access permissions to the server except to those public http pages and to run my htdig which is completely installed in my home dir with htsearch in my cgi-bin and using cgi-wrap to run htdig. So, correct me if I am wrong but I have to access/index the sites by http (i think that's what you guys have called it), i.e., i can't set it up, say, just one host url or something. Am i clear? and am I correct?
