I think it's a permissions problem.On the 7 box, I was able to create an iTools user and I was able to set the owner of the realm protected directory to this user. The group is set to www. Everything works fine.On the 6.5.7 box, I create the iTools user, but I cannot get this user to appear in the dropdown list of owners so I can set the pertinent folder to this owner.Anyone know how to get this working? Or, is there a combination of owner and group I can set this folder to that will allow the app access to this directory to download the contents?BTW, I can access both of the directories without problems with a web browser.Thanks,--Will StarckNovaDerm Skincare Sciencehttp://www.novaderm.comwjs@novaderm.com-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .To unsubscribe, E-mail to: To switch to the DIGEST mode, E-mail to Web Archive of this list is at: http://webdna.smithmicro.com/ Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
