Charles,
that was it... a brain fart as we sometimes call it. while making changes, I had to recreate the website (FP2002 extensions, dont ask) and I made a typo "PUT" instead of "POST."
okay, so now the original server is working. good, because it raises a few more questions:
1) why can I not rename my BBS from 65.169.188.92/cgi-bin/ultimatebbs.cgi to driveradvocate.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebbs.cgi?
When I do so, I start losing images and cannot log in. I then have to manually change it back in the vars_config.cgi
2) cache is now not working. this has got to be a joke... if I enable cache, a post results in an error message (which I do not have handy at the moment). a clean browser reload on the client shows the post to be there. Disabling cache in the cp.cgi solved this for now... what gives?
so, I think this just about does it for the "original" server. the "backup" server is still not working, though it is set to GET,POST <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
