Bug#607952: group stb-admin membership is required to access the system-tools-backends
The error:
"The configuration could not be loaded"
"You are not allowed to access the system configuration."
May occur if the user is simply not a member of group "stb-admin" when
attempting to use some entries in the Administration menu in GNOME
(system-tools-backends).
Users wishing to use these tools may also wish to be members of the
group "sudo" as per Squeeze release notes so they are authorised by
their own password rather than root's.
Aspects of these bug reports may be duplicates of this problem, although
at least one report has additional content.

This was noted on a box upgraded from Lenny to Squeeze, which had been
tracking Debian testing before the official release of Squeeze.
