 Atually I did download it. And tried it out, the RPM works better than
 the one thatis available for download. But still, the same problem
 persists. I can get the server running, but I cannot connect to it from
 the web. I just get the "unavailable" page after about 30 seconds or
 so. Could you be so kind as to give me step by step instructions? I am
 building the sample page. So that should make it a little easier to
 explain I hope. Anyhow, please help me, I am a moron and need to read a
 FAQ befor I wipe, so you know what you are dealing with. Thanks....
