CGI Password Protection Script
I am trying to set up a cgi password protection script, but have had many problems, the latest being that I cannot get the admin perl file to write the admuinistrator password text file. It simply comes up with "Cannot write the password.txt file. Please check your permission settings".
I have tried different permission settings, and 3 different free cgi supporting hosts, but to no avail.
The url of the site to get the script, called "Account Manager Lite", is http://cgi.elitehost.com/acctlite/
I would appreciate it if anyone could shed any light on what is going wrong,

umm... if password.txt isn't created then youneed to chmod the dir 777 if it is then chmod passwords.txt 777.
