[Xitami] URGENT - Major server bug in cgi - never before seen

[MRJ InfoTech Admin]

A little update after testing even more with all settings, including 
running the value - 1 to disallow creation of short file names in the registry.

I can create the file, write to it by using Print #iFileNumber, "0"

but still not read the file or even see it in the CGI.

Windows can see it alright, and I can list it and so on, but the CGI 
doesn't appear to have the right permissions.

I didn't think Xitami was permission dependant on windows for access to 
some folders, when running Xitami as Admin
