Hey Ed,
On most linux systems w/Frontpage, the password file is just a htpasswd generated file.
On DA servers if you look into the public_html/vti_pvt directory you shoud see a file called service.pwd
You can change this file with /usr/bin/htpasswd
change into that sites directory
cd /home/(username)/domains/(site name)/public_html/_vti_pvt
Make a backup copy first (just in case)
cp service.pwd backup.service.pwd
Then issue the following htpassword command
/usr/bin/htpasswd service.pwd (username)
You should then be prompted for the username twice. Enter is twice - then test out Frontpage - this should work for you.
Let me know how it goes.
