                  usual the devil is in the detail.&nbsp; Let me try to
                  explain exactly what I did. <br>
                  1. I didn't want to move our email from yahoo so I
                  started asking Bluehost how to go about doing that.
                  They said and I quote<i> "Changing your name servers
                    to Bluehost would interrupt your mail unless you
                    change your MX records with us to point to Yahoo
                    before you change the nameservers.I went ahead and
                    made the MX record change on our end, you can change
                    the nameservers at anytime.</i>"<br>
                  <br>
                  They also said (different dude 10 hours later).<br>
                  <i>"You can change the hosting of just the website to
                    us by pointing just the a record of the domain to <a
                      moz-do-not-send="true" href="tel:66.147.244.79"
                      value="+16614724479" target="_blank">66.147.244.79</a>.
                    &nbsp;This will change the domain but not the mx
                    entries."</i><br>
                  2. So I changed only the A-Record from yahoo to the ip
                  address mentioned. Not the NS records on network
                  solutions.<br>
                  3. Then got the error mentioned. Got to home page but
                  no further. 500 errors.<br>
                  4. Looked in the .htaccess and saw the line<br>
                  RewriteBase /~polamor1/<br>
                  I suspect that this may be wrong and I have to comment
                  this line out but due to my ignorance can not justify
                  based on logic. <br>
                  <br>
                  Thanks<br>
