RE: Migrate from WebTen to iTools?

["Bennett, Mark" <mark.bennett@xxxxxxxx>]

dear Ed,

I have just started to migrate to OS-X iTools and am finding it very heavy
going...good luck!

I have run up another box to trial it all and get to know the hang-ups and
foibles before trying to move over the real stuff!....its is not going well
with much unexplained and unclear ... just finding what the story with the
CGI-BIN was took too much time and I didn't expect to be confused by this
level of stuff...phpmyadmin is doing me over at the moment....argh!!!

good luck!


Regards

Mark.
