RE: [cobalt-users] FrontPage again...

I think it may be an ownership problem. I recall that when you upload via
FP, the owner of the files are set as nobody. When you FTP, they change to
whoever the the account uploading is.

I seem to remember having this problem before. I believe I deleted the
entire website and deleted the FP extensions from the GUI and in root at
/usr/local/frontpage/domain.tld.

I then enabled FP in the GUI and all was OK.

Subject: [cobalt-users] FrontPage again...


Hi Yah,

Customer has half a dozen sites all using FP, up to now he's had no
problems publish individual or full site pages to the server. About a month
ago their office had ADSL added and ever since then he can't publish
consistently with FrontPage, sometimes he gets a server time out error then
the next time it won't connect.

Has anyone come across this before?

I've spoken with their IT guys who assure me there are no restrictions
there side either by firewall or port restrictions.

He uses the FP Publish so it's all done through httpd and not FTP. Now the
funny thing is he can upload files via FTP using their old dial-up account
and the new ADSL connection. They have been allocated dynamic IP's rather
than static ones.

Question...

Is there anyway to watch top to see if the user has connected to the server
i.e. spot their IP address/IP range when using FP?

Is there anyway to get syslog register their connection/publish - currently
all my logs show is FTP connections and not FrontPage connections?

Is the ISP telling porkies and there should be a specific port open etc for
FP Publishing?

They do have port 80 open.

Many thanks in advance

I've searched high and low through the archives and google but nothing
comes near to this, lots of FTP timeouts and connection fails and plenty of
stuff about FP 80 files etc.

Chae
