Hello Robin,

I tried two accounts, one in the administrator group, and one not; both 
weren't able to access the Export page:
$wgSpecialPageLockdown['Export'] = array('administrator');

If I use this string, there's no effect; anyone can access it:
$wgSpecialPageLockdown['ListFiles'] = array('administrator');

Any ideas of what the problem could be? I am using Mediawiki 1.16.0. It appears 
to be straight forward in terms of setting it up. Perhaps, I should download 
Lockdown from a different site. Is there any know issues with Lockdown?


Thanks,
Graham
