Re: discussion groups

Ron:

Offhand, I would say you would find it easier to set up your
discussion list as a separate web. Something like:
www.myweb.com/newsubweb/ The new web could then have it's own
security.

Also, depending on the server your web is on and/or whether you
are using the Extensions, there may be non-FrontPage security
methods available.

We use FP-98. And--If FP 2K is the same, you should find a brief
overview in the manual and the step by step instructions in the
Help Menu in FP. (Big sigh -- al least Microsoft and Deneba still
include manuals. Surprising how many do not these days.)

There is a FrontPage Discussion mail reflector at:
fpwmr(at)listbot.com Some really sharp people who can help.

To join, I believe you go to http://www.listbot.com/ and look for
the FrontPage list. Otherwise, send an e-mail to
fpwmr(at)listbot.com and ask how to join.
