Hi All,
I've installed e-smith and configured several ibays, users, groups etc.
At some point e-smith-manager give me in the left frame the following message:
"You don't have permission to access /e-smith-manager/cgi-bin/navigation on this server."
From that point I can't start the manager!!!
Any ideas what happened with our server.

this happened to me, i don't know why
a nasty hack is to edit , delete?
/etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/access.incl

Hi Guys,
I have a problem with the e-smith-manager too, e.g. I may have created an ibay and a user and all is ok, then for some reason a day or two later, I go to create another user (testing) as I am a home user, or another ibay it says to no matter what name I call the user or ibay, that the "maximum number of characters is" and does not quallify this with a number...hence I cannot make new users or ibays and I re-install again...
any light on this, a fix, some knowledge...?
Kind Regards,
Cameron Stacey

Finally I found the botlleneck!
For some reason while performing some of the actions in e-smith-manager, requiring expansion of templates the template /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/90e-smithAccess20panels which expands and includes the file access.incl into httpd.conf dosn't so and after that next try to open e-smith-manager in web browser results to "Forbidden" or "Access denied", because access.incl is not included and general access restriction is very RESTRICTIVE.
The workaround is:
1. telnet as root
2. start full system templates expansion by: /sbin/e-smith/signal-event console-save
3. restart httpd by: service httpd restart
Guys from e-smith or someone else maybe should know which operation skips inclusion of access.incl!
