Hello everyone.
After a little more digging, I figured that I would update everyone on
the exact cause of my frustrations over the past couple of days.
Although I had purchased this program from a company who claimed it was
written for linux, I would now have to assume that it was actually
written for linux on a dos / windows computer. As soon as I ran
dos2unix on all the cgi programs, all my problems went away.
I recognize that I could just use .htaccess / .htpasswd to secure the
web page, however, a couple of the features that the organization this
is for wants, is for users to be able to change or retieve their
passwords when they forget them (and they do forget their passwords - on
a regular basis) This program is "supposed" to do that (after all the
hassle that I have gone though, it had better), as well as it has mysql
database backend to it, and I am hoping that I can join the
authentication together between the CMS and the members area of the web
site.
If it had not been for some documents (primarily PDF files) that the
association want in the members area, I could have used the CMS to
restrict access to certain pages
Again, thanks for all the suggestions
Happy New Year everyone
Much relieved now,
Darcy
