Check the error log, it should show: [Sat Jun 12 19:22:34 1999] [notice] Apache/1.3.6 (Unix) FrontPage/3.0.4.3 configured -- resuming normal operations If you don't see this, the check /usr/local/libexec/apache for mod_frontpage.*. If you don't see it then you didn't install the apache13-fp port. When you installed Apache13-fp, did you install over a previous configuration or is it a fresh install? Next check your httpd.conf file, is mod_frontpage listed in the LoadModule & AddModule sections: LoadModule frontpage_module libexec/apache/mod_frontpage.so and AddModule mod_frontpage.c The ports default httpd.conf file uses IfDefine directives to change the configuration: <IfDefine FRONTPAGE> : : </IfDefine> This requires the Apache server to be started as "httpd -DFRONTPAGE", in order to use the FrontPage Extentions. Check your servers startup script (/usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache.sh), does it start the server with -DFRONTPAGE. If it doesn't you may want to replace it with the apache.sh.tmpl script. NOTE: Every time the server is started by the apache.sh.tmpl script it will generate a new key file for the frontpage extentions. This is used to prevent individuals from acquiring the key.
