Disregard last email. This is the one pointing out that you are using Apache and not Microsoft's IIS 6.0 Server.
Line to look at: set, a.go. via an Apache Action directive. You are now entering into different category, as this is not just .Net related (this is auctually probably only NTFS permissions related and something to do with your Apache conf) and not IIS related. If you were using IIS, you would understand 100% step 4 in the how-to, but since you are not using IIS, you are confused. I refuse to use Apache on any Microsoft box, as that's just wrong IMHO. IIS = Microsoft. Apache != Microsoft. Apache = Open Source = *nix/BSD That's just my 2 cents though. /me drops 2 old pennies into the jar Regards, Nick H.
