I was trying to enable the "Repositories"and "Proxy Connections" menu items,
which I now see are under the "Administration" heading..  Maybe I just
misundestood this, and they are intended for System Administrators only.
The interesting thing is that if I grant a user the "User Administrator"
role, that user does not get any of the menu options under "Manage", which
includes the "User Management" item.  In other words without granting a user
"System Administrator" that user cannot manage users either.  This does not
seem correct to me.  I only have a few users, that need rights other than
guest, and am fine granting them all "System Administrator" rights, so this
is not a major problem for me currently.

Thanks,
Mark
