Hello,

File this one under "I just don't get it"

1. Installed Frontier 9.0 on Powerbook G4 running OSX.2.6. 512M Ram

I am on a dialup connection using AIRPORT Base Station to my ISP. I am hoping to trial Frontier before going to an OSX-Serve. I am assuimng I can 'trial" Frontier on my Powerbook?

I have purchased a Licence Key

2.I get to this point

http://127.0.0.1:5336/setupFrontier

3. I fill in the details

Name: Blah Blah
Server domain: 10.0.1.2 [Is this OK?? I am on dialup using Airport Base Station]
Email address:  Blah Blah
Outgoing (SMTP) mail server:Blah Blah
Organization:Blah Blah
Admin password: I make up a password hereBlah Blah
Repeat:Blah Blah

4. I click submit

5.I get a page that says "It worked" plus..

It Worked!
Because you use MacOS X, Frontier needs to configure your system for port-forwarding, which requires your MacOS X administrator password.

Frontier can optionally remember this password for you, so that you don't have to re-enter it each time Frontier is launched. This is recommended, especially if you plan to run Frontier on an unattended computer.

6. I add this password and click submit

7. I then get a dialog box appear that says connect to 127.0.0.1
and asks me for username and password : Realm Frontier Admin

I don't understand which username and password it is asking me for?? No matter what combination I try, I get a 401 Unauthorized error??

What am I doing wrong?

Cheers

Bill
