Cannot login to database
Hello
I have just set up the database, login form can be accessed but no matter what user id and password I typed in, it always give the
invalid username/password error! The user id and passwords as specified in default.pass are:

admin:A.f0Kvdiyy8q2:1:1:1:1:1
author:zs047RckAhJH6:1:1:1:1:0
guest:ZX9XTlIfPvdGE:1:0:0:0:0
qjs:qjs:1:1:1:1:1

Why can't I log in? Thank you for your time.
My site is at:
http://cgi-transfer.virtualave.net/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi

Do you mean you as Admin can login but the userids cannot login????

If so, then you have not set-up the authentication section of your default.cfg file correctly.

Please save your default.cfg file as a text file (like default.txt), then upload it to a publicly accessible directory, then post the URL where we can see the file..so that we can see the file!

Hi! If you check out the DBman-ual page
http://www.jpdeni.com/dbman/index.html ,
it says what to do for this problem in the "install the demo" tutorial. I'd check it out anyway, it's helping me set up my stuff!

Thanks to all who replied, I found out where the problem was.
What I meant in my qn was that I (as admin)could'nt log in using passwords in the pass file. I then logged in as
db.cgi?db=default&uid=default
then added my own username and password.
Only then could in login. Silly me.
Thanks again to all who replied.
