ID offset when modifying a link

ID offset when modifying a link
I just noticed this...when someone modifies their link, I go into the admin and hit verify. Instead of bringing up the correct ID, it brings up the first one in my database being ID 2. I've checked the linkID.txt file and it's correct....any ideas?

Thanks,

Steve

I checked the database and all seems ok...correct amount of pipes, everything in order...I went ahead and restored a backup from the backup directory and tried it again, but got the same results. It does everything correct as far as logging in with the username/password mod, pulling up the correct info with the autofill mod, and then submitting the new data.

In the admin, validate works ok as well, but brings up record 2. The only thing I've noticed with this copy of links, is that I have to build through telnet rather than the browser. For some reason, the directories are chmod without giving me permission to edit through a browser. When I validate, I have to ftp into the account and chmod links.db to 666 first. As soon as the cron job runs nph-build.cgi however, it resets it back to 644.
