[geeklog-users] can't login

[geeklog-users-admin at lists.geeklog.net]

I have a brand-new, clean installation of RedHat 9, completely stock 
except for tiny weaks to get GL running. (register globals, etc.) Apache 
2.0.40 running on :8080, PHP 4.2.2. Geeklog went on just fine--adjusted 
the two conf files and it came up perfectly. But I can't log in. After I 
enter Admin and 'password' at ...com:8080/~forum/admin/moderation.php, I 
see 'Logout' and the stop-sign icon, then I get bounced back to the login 
screen. I know the password is good, because if I put in the wrong 
password, I get a different error message--"Denied! Incorrect Login 
Information " I've chmodded everything according to docs/install.html, 
first 775, then 777. I even tried setting public_html to 777 (I've seen 
other stuff fail because someone other than 'apache' owned ~/public_html) 
but still nothing.

I made a user called 'forum' and unzipped the contents of gl1.3.8.tgz in 
there, so /home/forum/public_html/ is where the site is being served from, 
just like Apache likes. It's up and running fine on another box, w2k/iis, 
but I would like to have it running on this Linux box.

Thanks,
