Which account are you using to access the Web-admin stuff? I believe that not all accounts are avaliable thourgh the web interface, including *root*. The account you should be using is *admin*. I believe that by default this is the only account that can access the web admin stuff. Also be sure that the *admin* account only contains alpha-numeric characters. Having *&[EMAIL PROTECTED]<space><tab> may not be passed correctly to authenticate the *admin* account. I don't think you need to reinstall once you can see the web-admin starting page. Just change the password for *admin* when you're logged in as root.

Hope this helps.

Morning All,

Just installed IPCOP on a Compaq Presario 2240 box. All seemed to go
well during the installation with both cards being detected. I set up
the Green card with an IP of 192.168.123.200 and can ping that address
from both W2K boxes and a SuSE 8.2 box. When I browse to that IP with
IE6 or Mozilla I get the web interface and the uptime notice updates
when refresh button is pressed. The interface also accuratly reflects
wether or not I am logged on to the IPCOP box locally as root.

The problem is that I cannot log onto the IPCOP box via the Web
interface either http or https as such http://192.168.123.200:81 or
https:192.168.123.200:445.

I have also replaced the IP address with "ipcop", the actual machine
name.

I have installed this 3 times with the same results.

Any suggestions?
