[WinMac] Re: Problem with G3 Front Page access/ NT Server

Hi there folks. I have a problem that I hope someone can help with. My
webmaster just loaded the latest service pack on our new web server that is
using Windows NT. However, as we get ready to go live with the new site, I
can not now access FrontPage, which is the program we use to manage our
website.

I can log on to the server, and the program starts doing its thing. However,
when it comes time for the files to appear in the window from Front Page,
the program stops and a warning that says "An Unexpected Exception has
occurred" comes up on the screen. Just to make life more interesting, the
server has also sent about 10 of the same messages in a row, one on top of
another, right before it crashed my machine on other occasions.

This is driving us mad, as of course, my website manager can access the site
with his Windows version of FrontPage just fine. But neither I, nor my
assistant, who also uses a G3 can do so. It is not an 8.5 issue, either, as
my assistant has 8.1. And, we can both still access our old version of the
site, which is still housed on another NT server (an older version of the
service packs are on that one however.)

Anyone have a clue? I really do not want to have to go buy virtual PC and
load FrontPage for Windows. When someone mentioned yesterday about the
issues surrounding loading both the number three and four versions of the
service pack that sounded like that might be a solution here as well.

Thanks much for any insight anyone can provide.
