Re: [mv] MiniMate problem and Link directory

******    message to minivend-users from "Ron Phipps" <takedown@cdsnet.net>     ******

I have since fixed the cgi program program (I was missing the s for the user
permissions).  However I still receive the message: "The requested item
(config/edit_record) was not found" when I attempt to edit a record in
MiniMate.  Thanks for any help that can be provided.
