Hi, Vinux 3.0 is based on Ubuntu 10.04. I have installed the Xampp package from Apache friends and everything starts correctly. I then linked my local copy of my website to the htdocs folder but when I try to access it with: http://localhost/stormdragon.us/ I get access forbidden messages. It says I don't have permission to access the page. Also, when I tried to change into the Dropbox/stormdragon.us/ directory the permissions had been changed and I had to set them back. This is the first time I have really had any trouble with Xampp. It is usually a very valuable tool for developing websites before actually posting them to the internet. If anyone can help with my permissions problem I would be most greatful. thanks Storm -- Vinux Publicity Coordinator: http://www.vinuxproject.org/ Registered Linux user number 508465: https://linuxcounter.net/user/508465.html My blog, Thoughts of a Dragon: http://www.stormdragon.us/ Follow me on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/stormdragon2976 "I am the Lord of this Kingdom.
