John,

I've gone through the $wgSharedDB information. The database is set to be
shared, as well as the user and user_properties tables. However,
user_groups is not shared, and adding the appropriate records to the
language specific user_groups table does not seem to be enough. I appear in
the Special:UserRightsList page for the appropriate group (however, the
listing of my name does not include the bureaucrat and sysop like it does
for other people, or for myself in the English wiki) so I feel I have
missed something in the process.
