set up a fileman directory under the cgi-bin and it seems to work, however the only directory I can't access is my cgi-bin. says access not allowed...Hypermart server. I've tried setting the pass dir to the cgi-bin and to other directories but still can't get access to the cgi-bin.

Hello stevens:

I think that the possible cause of the problem is that cgi-bin is not owned by you. It is probably owned by root and you do not have access to it.

I do have access to this thru ftp using my root password and thru their online site manager. So it's not as if I'm not allowed there...problem is so many things are in folders below the cgi-bin.

I would think this would be a very common problem. Are you saying there's nothing I can to to resolve it? Has anyone talked with hypermart about this?

Hi

It's a bit of a security risk allowing FileMan to access a cgi-bin, a bad idea IMHO.
