I have read the other replied, and I just now uninstalled vmware. I am

You installed via the TAR.GZ before?  That was what I did, and all seemed
to work.

I did change the target installation location to /usr/local however. Do
you think that would have mattered?


No, that's where I have mine installed.


Yes, that is the right text. :)  Do you have javascript turned off?  Any
other security features?  The login page seems to make use of some funky
iframe stuff, as well as Javascript.

Not that I know of. All other pages work and I have never knowingly
killed javascript in either of the two browsers.


Hmm...that is odd. Are you getting any error messages in the logs under /var/log/vmware-mui? Specifically access_log and error_log, but look in the other files too.

I just reinstalled vmware and vmware-mui. vmwere went into /usr/local/bin and mui also in /usr/local (pixmaps and icons also in /usr/local).

The first time I try to access https://localhost:8333/, I get:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Apache/1.3.31 Server at bijli Port 8333


and the error log of mui has this in it:

I guess I need to change some permission somwhere?
