Sitegroups require username modifiers to be used to login to the admin
interface. Use 'admin*' or 'admin!sitegroup' to logon as root,
'username+sitegroup' as sitegroup admin or regular user.

If you login as 'admin*' you will have a full,unrestricted view of the
midgard database. You probably don't want to change anything else than the
admin interface itself if you log in this way.

Ron Parker is finishing up a text on sitegroups that will explain these
issues. In the meanwhile you may want to read
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=midgard&m=95540198128017&w=2, but note
that the modifiers have since been changed to '*' (iso '#') for full root,
'!' (iso '/') for admin/root, '$' for user root, and '+' (iso '@') for
normal users and SG admins.
