Ollie,
Thanks for your help. I made the change suggested,
and now I've got a different error message....seem to
be making progress. Since it seems to have something
to do with permissions, I've posted the permissions on
all the folders that I thought could be a player. I
don't understand what the chdir error is all
about. Isn't it just trying to change to that
directory? It listed the directory correctly in the
error message. I also can't remember what the "s" and
"S" is in the permissions below.
Thanks for your help,
Nathan
