The firewall is relevant depending on your circumstances. In any case it would take you all of one minute to disable your firewall to test out this "wild far out suggestion". At the most you would have lost one minute but you would have either: - gained the satisfaction of saying "I told you the firewall was irrelevant, now go away and stop wasting my time with your ridiculous suggestions" or - you would have found the cause of your problem Contrast that with the number of posts you have made denying that the firewall could be a problem, and stating adamantly that you will not do such-and-such a thing because it is 'not supposed' to happen like that. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ /* Did it ever occur to you that fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing?
