RE: [cobalt-users] .htaccess files

["1st Web Internet Services" <admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK Guys - I give up....

Despite hunting high and low I cannot find where my .htaccess files are or
should be. One web  doesn't appear to have one as FP give an error examining
the permissions, and typing .htaccess after the domain name returns an
error.

On another site I also cannot seem to locate it despite looking via FTP and
Telnet, yet in this case FP gives a positive return checking permissions,
and typing .htaccess after the domain name in the browser displays the file,
but I still cannot locate it :-(

Can anyone assist me - I have searched the archives, but all I can establish
is that it should be in the web directory - but I can't see it.

Anyone any tips.

Ian
