Can't Publish

[Guest]

I just installed XP SP2 so Im not sure if these two problems are related or
not.

I have been using Front Page to publish my site without any problems and
since I have installed SP2 I cannot publish.

When I click on Remote Site my username/pass comes up as usual but after I
enter them I get an error message:


Unable to open 'http://www.xxx.com'. Possible causes:
1. The web server may not have the frontpage server extensions installed.
2. The web server may be temporarily out of service
3. If you are connecting through a proxy server, the proxy servings may be
incorrect.
4. An error may have occured in the web server.

The only thing that has changed since this was the installing of SP2. I
figured it may be the firewall so I tried disabling that and it still did not
work. Since, I have tried resetting the front page extensions, deactiving
and reactivating the extensions and nothing has worked.

Anyone know any ideas?

I installed XP SP2 had problems publishing to an FTP site,
but no problems continuing to publish to an HTTP site. So,
I can only suggest:

FrontPage Publish Command Fails

The solution for publishing to the FTP site, BTW, was to
check Use Passive FTP in Remote Web Site Properties.
