We tested another installation of V 4.5.7 on a second machine and the 
flypage worked fine.  The difference between the two machines is as 
follows:
1st Machine (flypage will not work):
      Redhat V5.1, Linux 2.0.36, Perl 5.005_2
2nd Machine (flypage works):
      Redhat V6.1, Linux 2.2.12, Perl 5.005_3
Besides the obvious (upgrade)...any thoughts??

>Sounds like your flypage might be in the "special_pages" directory and 
>not in "pages". If that is the case, try copying it to pages and see what 
>happens.
