These made sense and I ran your suggestions. The first login attempt and
I received the appropriate login box, entered user name and passwd but
still only five (5) entires in navigation menu. Logoff, close browser
tab, start new tab, enter backuppc ipaddress and just login, no request
for user name or passwd.
Thanks for your suggestions, Adam. These match (in the CentOS way) to
what I was seeing on Ubuntu running v3.3.1. I still think it is a
permissions issue.
