This is something that I had not tried yet. I'll wait for the next occurrence and do as you said.

Interesting. I wish I could disable IIS on port 80, move IWEBMSG there, and see if the status is correctly reported over several days. Unfortunately, it's a production machine and IIS is needed. Also, if someone from Ipswitch could confirm that what you wrote is by design, it would be very helpful to me. > Well mine displays "Version 7.1" - that may be in one of the web > template patches - not sure. I have the latest templates, dated August 2, 2002. However, I was able to modify the file \Web\welcome.txt to change the header so that it now reads "7.12". FWIW, editing the file itself with Notepad, stopping and restarting IWEBMSG from the Iadmin console (not the Web interface) did not work. One has to use "Edit Welcome Message" from the Web interface. Live and learn :) Thanks for your help, Terry! Guy Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
