PUT Method Not Allowed ?

Thanks for the link.

The network I am working on is a closed net of about 30 workstations.
So there is no outside connection at all.

The users who would be PUTting the files to the server own the
network. I just try to make things happen for them.

So configuring and allowing PUTs should not be a major problem. If it
gets screwed up - Oh Well...


Thanks

I would recommend using NFS or Samba with proper group permissions for
web page updates instead of PUT. I also recommend throwing away
Netscape 4.7 and joining the 21st century.
