Hello Jim:
Thanks once again for your assistance.
I check the various databases as you suggested. I found
manilaWebsites.root, as usual, had not loaded when I started Frontier.
So I've trashed Frontier entirely and reinstalled.
I enter "smtp.mac.com" as mail host and "127.0.0.1" as the server
address.
I enter what I understand is the "Frontier server admin" password.
And, later, my "MacOS system admin" password, to enable portforwarding.
This time I received the error "Port forwarding failed" and then a few
minutes later,
"A connection failure occurred".
On previous occasions the setup procedure seems to have run through
without mishap. Nevertheless, even at those times, I've not been able to
connect to the server.
This time, as before, I can open the control panel. On the page
<http://127.0.0.1:8080/controlPanel/sites>, I find I can't connect to
either "createASite" or to "Douglas Wagner"
