Ok, that helps... but there's still something up.
When I go to the base script, at
http://www.kalico.net/cgi-bin/oj/oj.cgi I'm not getting the add new user screen (which said something like first time user, enter username + pwd twice), just the login screen which says "no login" -- with space for username and password only once. But I cant get in with the username and pwd I tried to reg yesterday, so I'm lost. I can call it with the ? I'm sure, but isn't it supposed to start with a newuser login? or if it's because I already logged in for the first time yesterday, why does it return an error? I'm also not sure where to find the users, so I can check to see if they're being written where they should be. Thanks!!
