You have three options, in descending order of preference: a) switch to a capital-F-Free browser, such as Konqueror (much better in KDE3), or Galeon b) have the CGI script run as mikel, in which case it will have permission c) hack the Netscape binary to not do that -- Daniel Stone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * liedra hands DanielS some big fat coldfusion files.
