Malcolm,
When you publish sites with Frontpage, it sets up the user group as
"nobody". I don't think this is a big worry, since Frontpage REQUIRES
their pages to be this way. If you intend to upload CGI's on a frontpage
site, you should FTP them to the location and make sure privs are set as
chmod 755 *NOT* 777...that would be bad!
