I was planning on just loading the WebCat, putting the sites onto that ( : D ) tossing it into the trunk of my friend's car and away we go to SanDiego! : DWill I need to have WebCat installed on my computer at home to work with it on the server it lives on? I thought it only went on the server.Will the Appletalk cord connection thing not work? Then my server machine would also be connected to the internet via my G3 internet's connection or be able to be contacted by the browser on the G3. Is this correct or do I have things pictured wrong?Thanks for the help! Once I get this initial installation of WebCat so I can access it taken care of my questions will be less simplistic. I appreciate the patience.Robin Wildflower
