Dear all!!
I installed dbman with identical versions of *.cfg and *.pl files on a first machine and every thing worked fine. When I call the script with:
www.host1.com/cgi-bin/frauenoffensive/db.cgi?db=middle
I receive the logon screen and I am able to login as a user called michaels and a session is established and I am forwarded to the main screen.
But when I do the same an the second machine like
www.host2.com/cgi-bin/frauenoffensive/db.cgi?db=middle
I am forwarded directly into the main screen without having the possibility to login.
On the other hand by calling the script as a default user like
http://www.host2.com/cgi-bin/frauenoffensive/db.cgi?db=middle&uid=default
I do not have problems and I can perform all the activities granted for the default user.
What could be the problem?
Sincerely Michael
PS: here is what I did in the middle.cfg file
