A 403 error for what? admin.cgi? Make sure that your directory is set to 755 or higher, and that admin.cgi and all other .cgi files are set to 755.

Hope that helps

Hi I got it working now thankx, the only problem is i dont know how to make the directory protected with a password, it doesn't say how to do it all it says:
5. ** Password protect your admin directory. Never leave your admin directory unprotected in a public site, your whole directory could be erased!!

You need to use .htaccess protection. Search the forums for this and you are sure to find loads of answers Smile
