 * hey guys (& gals?)
    noob question: i installed wp 1.5, everything went fine until
   i had to log in via /wp-login.php. I just timed out everytime i entered my login
   infos (admin+said password). It didn’t somehow loop back to the login page, like
   described in the posts about “the bug”. I did everything it says on Login_trouble
   in the codex (reseting password, clearing cache and cookies etc) but nothing 
   did the trick.
 * the error message i get in firefox: “The operation timed out when attemping to
   contact fs1.unet.unvie.ac.at”
    it doesn’t work in IE either (i’d been surprised…*
   g*)
 * i read through the documentation of my server (we get 200 mb for free on my university)
   it says i have to put php files in the “php”-subdirectory of my public_html. 
   Also, it says i can’t alter permissions for files (chmod). maybe that’s the cause,
   but I’m not sure.
 * I hope you can help me

 * fs1.unet.unvie.ac.at is not a valid domain name, or so says the firefox. Take
   this problem to the webmaster/network admin and he/she should be able to fix 
   it sooner than any of us can open a bottle 🙂

 * ok i did that and that’s what i got back: (i’m trying to translate from german
   🙂
    “The problemis, that there is a false reference to a css-file in this script(
   i think he refers to wp-login.php?), and therefor the server waits forever to
   load this style sheet.
 * bloginfo(‘wpurl’); delivers a false output (because of our setup the script is
   physicaly on fs1.unet.univie.ac.at, the webserver runs on [http://www.unet.univie.ac.at](http://www.unet.univie.ac.at))
 * If you correct this script, it should run flawlessly.”
 * ooookay, i don’t understand a single word. i tried to substitute all the relative
   adresses in wp-login.php with absolute ones to get rid of the fs1.unet.unvie.
   ac.at, but this produced even more errors.
 * i don’t know PHP btw, so if anyone could help me, i’d be more than grateful

   the phpmyadmin screen. well ok, thanks a bunch anyway
