This may sound weird. but my ISP says he has reset the permissions on my dbman files and the folders in my cgi-bin several times. It seems each time I edit or modify a dbman file and then FTP it to its cgi-bin folder, the permissions somehow get reset to the default read-only or executable only status, which of course does not allow DBMan to run properly.

By the way, we are running on a WindowsNT server that also hosts out FrontPage Web.

Anyway, my ISP says running Pearl scripts on a WindowsNT server is a "Crap Shoot" at best and seemes to think something in DBMan is responsible for reseting the permissions. Is that TRUE? Is that POSSIBLE? Is my ISP blowing smoke? Is there a workable, easy solution?

Any help would be appreciated.
