Hi,

I have instiki up and running, using mysql, mongrel_rails and apache.
Hunky dory!  It's cool!

I've tested it from a bunch of different networks, with a bunch of
different browsers, and it works fine.  Except for one user:

I can see her requests coming in with 403 errors.  Ok. We have
authentication turned on, which does a redirect to a login page -- so
I figure, send her directly to that login page, so we tried that.
Doesn't work.  So we tried Firefox, which she installed just for this
purpose.

This is the weird part.  With Firefox, she gets the favicon file --
200!  Success! -- but she does not retrieve any other files!  That
strikes me as very odd.

Help!

Charlie
