texte = I run an OSX server with Partner Edition with Domain Count Serial "none" and one single domain on it. The domain list shows localname.local (with one dot only) but the server is available from the internet with its IP or URL. I noticed that when i write http:// IP/webcatalog/ it works well, but when i type http://IP/webcatalog without the final slash, i get a redirect to http:// www.localname.local/webcatalog/ Anyway, not sure this is why it prompts you for a WebDNA username/ password on first opening. Of course, you do not use [AUTHENTICATE] or [PROTECT] tags in your pages? because this would immediately explain what you see... chris On Nov 1, 2006, at 11:58, Taipan wrote > Hi Chris ... > > As you have written ...that's exactly what I have encountered.
