First - opening your system to the world is not the best of ideas - especially with the bredth of the audience here (and on the newsgroup) - one never knows who's lurking... Solutions for your problem: 1. HP's OpenMarket Web Server - see your HP Sales Rep ($1200, or thereabouts) 2. NCSA Freeware Port of httpd - downloadable from HP's JAZZ server and soon, in smaller, easily installed downloads from other servers. Watch the newsgroup and 3000-L! (Free in both cases) 3. QSS now has one as well - [log in to unmask] (in the $450 range) 4. Speedware Autobahn (www.speedware.com) (Price unknown) I would recommend that if you are responsible for that machine, then a Systems Management course is in order - but turn off open access to it - and get some passwords on MANAGER.SYS right away!
