I passed on the details about FollowsynLinks ans FileInfo directive to the host, who responded:

We’ve added a few lines to your .htaccess file try again.

Here’s what they added:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

It seems to have done the job!

Thanks, I’ll get back to the Host and ask about FollowSymLinks and FileInfo directive.

OK… checked for .htaccess file and there is one in the top level wordpress folder. It was set to writable by group (CHMOD 664). Ive set it to 666. Went back to wp-admin and tried to reset the permalinks again, but I’m still only given the option including /index.php/

Unfortunately only have cpanel access at the moment (ie from work!!), I’ll check with FTP access tonight

Thanks HandySolo… you’re right I missed that section.

So, onto the Host to ask for Mod_rewrite to be enabled…. otherwise we live with them as they are.
