Whether or not your pages are protected with a [protect] tag has nothing to do with WebCat's CommandSecurity and CommandsAllowed prefs. Pages protected with the [protect] tag only check the users.db for an acceptable username/password based on the group named in the protect tag.If your WebCat Prefs disallow the $append command, then you won't be able to send an $append command, but an [append] context will still work. It seems like that may be the way your prefs are set right now.The WebCat Prefs enable and disable $commands, not [contexts]. If you want to allow the $append command, you have to specifically name it in the CommandsAllowed pref. Either that, or turn off CommandSecurity so that *all* commands are allowed ... :)Sincerely, Ken Grome WebDNA Solutions http://www.smithmicro.com/webdnasolutions/.
