Thanks! I had logged off/on which didn't help but I twiddled my thumbs for a
half-hour and now it works. I didn't make any changes so I guess the issue
was cached login information that timed out. I do have nscd running.

Epoptes runs very well and the teachers are excited about the capabilities
it adds for them.

Sincerely,
Dave Hopkins
