I have access to practically nothing, neither config.pck nor mm_cfg.py, but was able to wait out the problem as reported earlier.
In hindsight, I think this problem was more to do with the fact that I run three lists on this server, two of which have the same list admin password, one of which doesn't. If the developer team were thinking too pointy-headedly while developing it, and stored a hash of the password as a cookie value, and it didn't match, but they didn't incorporate the list name into the cookie name, then that might lead to an issue such as the one I experienced. I'm just glad to have this task out of the way, and without having to wait for a people's paradise bureaucratic synaptic gap to be jumped. Thankfully, the patience for people's paradises is coming to an end. Ch. -----Original Message----- From: Stephen J.

(I don't think there's anything in config.pck that affects the URL scheme.)
