Upgrade to Frontier 9 (on Mac OS X) Partial Failure

[sdevore at mac.com]

Remember that when it is asking for your username and password when it 
is setting up port forwarding it is asking for an admin password for 
the system( at the os level), when it is asking you for a username and 
password to login to the admin site, it wants the user email and 
password that you used when setting up your copy of frontier.   You 
might look at the frontier on os x faq ( 
http://frontier-osx.userland.com/directory/446 ) I am sorry that is 
seems to be in such a disarray right now, I am working on a cleaner 
version and should have it done soon.

Couple of things to remember, frontier is VERY sensitive to moving to 
new locations, if the file path changes at all things will break.  Your 
error makes me think that there is either corruption in your 
config.root file, or it is in the wrong location or it doesn't exist.

As far as the port forwarding, you might look at doing that with an 
item in /Library/StartupItems/ so that it happens at every start up.
