Hiya Patrick Thanks - I was having that problem cause the host (darling that he is) had left the firewall on & needless to say I couldn't connect! lol All is good now though & the site is up & running, just a quick note though - you were right about ... "Cobalts do have a "quirk" if you will, in that they love to drop you into the users directory and not the site directory. " That's exactly right - took me a while to realise I should be changing to the /web directory :o)
