Hi Alfredo

Thanks for your support I cane make these directories shut now but only by
Telnet and it would be nice if I could do that with Fileman.

I have made all the permissions as Gossamer suggested. But I'm not shore if
that is the thing the Cobalt expects.

The thing I'm note checking is that Fileman makes a *.pass file in the
../cgi-bin/fileman/pass (suggested by Gossamer) directory but the program is
not able to read the user and password from its one created file? When I
define a new user with new password every thing is ok in the *.pass file but
there is now permission on the restricted directory. But with .htaccess and
.htpasswd in the restricted directory it works?

I will try that and let you now what happened.
