one pass file...many databases...Argh...
Yo, I'm back:-)

I have setup DBMan successfully a couple times, I am now setting it up for a local non-profit mothers group in my town and this is my dilemma...

I have three databases for different content, all three will share one authorization folder, .pass file, .log file (i have the logging turned off tho' right now), all .cfg files are pathed properly, and two of the three allow default users to view only (Kids Stuff For Sale and Recipe Book) the third (Address Book) is only accessable with a login so only members of the group can use it.

The method I originally used to get set up was copy the existing databases, changing the .cfg files to fit the new server, and uploading to the server. Then it would not allow me to login in with the same passwords I had in the source that I duplicated, so I downloaded a fresh DBMan, and copied the default.pass to the server hoping admin/admin would let me in, well it doesn't, I CAN however, login as a default user with the db=address&uid=default extension to the two that allow default users.

I just can't think of what I am missing, if this rambling made any sense to anyone, please help me...local moms want it:-). This forum (especially Anthro and JPDeni) have made me a significantly better & smarter Perl user, but I am stumped right now...I am locked out of my own database:-)
