[SL] Re: Mandrake 9.1

Many thanks Jeffrey,

Your customisation of httpd.conf is better than the Mandrake specific one in 
the FAQ's.

I followed the Mandrake supplied fix, and put the modification in 
commonhttpd.conf, but with your script.

After restarting with /etc/init.d/httpd restart I was able to gain access to 
admin.pl. All the permissions were fine as I suspected. 

However I then ran across an IDENT Authentication failure. The problem here 
is that Mandrake doesn't appear to have pg_hba.conf, so the FAQ again 
couldn't help.

Webmin to the rescue, thanks Brook, and a little poking around allowed me to 
set the authentication to none. Not secure, but working. 

Now I can play with the system to learn it's quirks before transferring the 
business accounts across.

Regards 

Steven
