So, what you're saying is that the first time a new user logs into the 
bbs, they have to login as the 'bbs' user?

Anyway, like I said, I don't like the interference with the system files 
by 3rd party software, and I'm not going to wade through the setup program 
to try and discover what is going on. I'll look into the Elebbs option 
instead and see if that'll work for me.

Sorry, but I'm fussy when it comes to stuff like this.
