Re: Update site?

Hi Freaky,

Thank you for the reply - it was very helpful.
I added my two "test" users to the Administrators group (thanks to you - I
checked - that they can login locally).

The reason I needed to login from the same machine is -
I am a programmer and I needed to test my software so I installed everything
on my machine :)

THANKS!
Guy
