I have played with FP ext for several months off and on with different
versions of Apache and 
FP Ext. It has been very frustrating. And like you pointed out, very little
useful documentation. But I  have not had it hurt anything.

When you installed FP ext., did shell ask you where your httpd config
(server configuration) file was? If so, it should have believed you. Since
I installed laster version of Apache and Frontpage off /usr/local anyway, I
moved my httpd.conf and srm.conf files to /usr/local/apache/conf and told
fp ext to find httpd.conf there.

Then in /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd , I put  -f
/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf parameter on the httpd daemon.

I am using Redhat 5.0, Version 1.2.6 of Apache, and the FP ext dated 3/13/98.

I do have them working but still experimenting as I get time with different
security issues.

In your frontpage directory there should be a file named we80.cnf. If you
look at this, it has an entry where it thinks httpd.conf is located. Maybe
this is pointing to the wrong place.

Hope this helps, Rita
