Actually, it looks like I'd have to get a business account, which costs about $100/month + ~$24 for my phone line. If I could figure out where the address is getting re-written (has to be either something in Apache's config or something funky with my bind. (I'm no bind expert, though.)) then this thing might work. I was doing some testing and dialed in from another computer and different ISP and tried to access http://xx.xx.xx.xx and it didn't get re-written. When I added "/~dbk", it did get rewritten as mylocalhostname.com/~dbk. Then I noticed that the same thing was happening with netscape on the box running the Apache server in question, and with lynx, too. Well, thanks again for your interest and effort. --David -- =============================== David Karlin mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://funk48.home.travelin.com Powered by Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 ===============================
