How do you have Webware installed? Sounds like there's something wrong with your setup. You probably have Webware installed underneath your InetPub directory. This isn't a good idea. Instead, install it somewhere else. Like for example, c:\Webware. Then put just a copy of WebKit.cgi into one of your InetPub\wwwroot directories and edit the top of the file so that it points to your Webware installation. >** I have thought that Webware not being able to handle the strain might be >due to the Instance and Threading of webpages.

I'm not sure about those parameters, but I can tell you that I get excellent performance from Webware without ever having to touch them. -- - Geoff Talvola [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Webware-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-discuss
