texte = I have a non-WebDNA app that needs to http download files in a realm protected directory. I have it working on one box that is running iTools 7, but I can't get it working on another box that is running iTools 6.5.7. 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 Starck NovaDerm Skincare Science http://www.novaderm.com wjs@novaderm.com ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
