You've hit it, I think. Are the configs the same? My wwwoffle
processes are run as nobody and only nobody has any rights there.
If this is the problem, things to check are the configs (make sure
they are the same wwwoffle.conf, or at least the entry for run-uid
and run-gid entries). Then make sure that the id's are the same
(like nobody is id 99 on my Mandrake 7.0 system but perhaps SuSe
uses some other number). If so adjust the id's by using chown.
If the id numbers are different and this is not a one-time switch,
(that is, you are using both and want to bounce back and forth)
you may have to create a new user in each OS, with the same id
number, and make him the run-{u,g}id and chown.
HTH.
