 * I’m getting 403 Access Forbidden when I try to post to my WP v2.01 blog via blogdomain.
   com/xmlrpc.php.
 * The server I’m having the problem on is running php v4.4.2
 * I’m running the EXACT same WP configuration on another server with the same host
   and having NO problems posting via xml. The php version on that server is 4.3.11.
 * I’ve checked all the folder/file permissions, etc. I’ve triple checked the login/
   pswd info as well.
 * Any ideas?
 * Thanks,
    Randy Ohio
