please ignore, it works fine now. Don't know what I was doing wrong.
----------------------------------------------------
help! when I tried this line:
https://server:5001/webapi/auth.cgi?api=SYNO.API.Auth&method=Login&version=1&account=admin&passwd=admin
with the correct server name, admin and password
My browser always does a search for this item on google or bing instead of returning the response.
I can run the next two lines with the entry.cgi and I get the error back, but I can't get the 1st line with the auth.cgi to run.
It got to be something silly I'm missing.
Thanks!
