Hello Lawrence:
Thanks for the tip.

I've run netstat -a as suggested in that article.
Is there anything here which might give a pointer as to why I can't 
connect to the Manila server?

I note Frontier should be run as root if portforwarding is not set up. 
The last time I attempted to install Frontier, this failed for some 
reason.

If I run this as a quick script in Frontier pf fails again.
userland.portforward(80,8080,"127.0.0.1")
--> "Setting forwarding failed"

Would it be better to set up Frontier in the root directory? If yes, can 
I launch the server from my local account?

Do you have any other suggestions? (Time is running out).

Can you pass me over to someone at Userland who is running Frontier on 
OSX?

This is the result of "netstat" when Frontier is running.
