Correction! This won't work in your case because you're trying to load an -XML- file over VFS, and we haven't written a receiver to do that - only regular text files are currently supported.
There is a LogFileXMLReceiver (in receivers companion) that will do the same thing that the menu item will do, but we don't yet have a VFSLogFileXMLReceiver.

If you go to the Welcome tab, click on the 'view example receiver configuration' button and copy this file, remove all the plugins except the VFSLogFilePatternReceiverWithUserInfoPrompt plugin and change the values to match your environment. Save the file off, make sure the URL to the chainsaw xml config file is specified in the 'automatic configuration URL' field in the 'view/show application-wide preferences' screen, then restart Chainsaw. When Chainsaw starts, you should be prompted for the username and password needed to load the file.

I am a little confused as whether or not I have misconfigured, or if remote XML files are not supported by chainsaw, or if I still need the LogFileXMLReceiver to do this? Can anyone help me figure out what I have done wrong? Douglas E Wegscheid Lead Technical Analyst, Whirlpool Corporation (269)-923-5278 "A wrong note played hesitatingly is a wrong note.
