Hi, I've read as much of the documentation, the FAQs, and forum posts as I can, and I'm still stuck. In inc_profile.asp, it lists Your Account (M_NAME) and Username (M_USERNAME). What is the difference between these two?
I'm trying to change the text that's displayed (i.e. Change Signature to Address) and remove some of the fields that won't be used (YIM, AIM, ICQ), and now when people register, it completes, but they get a slew of errors that it failed. But then they can log in. The only thing I can determine is that Your Account isn't showing up (and it hadn't shown up when I was doing the original testing to understand how it all worked), and something needs to be set, but it isn't getting set.
Thus, if I could understand the difference between these (if any), I could hardwire one of them to a value, and everything would (hopefully) work peachy dandy.
Thanks in advance. Lara

M_USERNAME is used for NT Authentication. (uually used on an Intranet)
M_NAME is used for Database Authentication. (meaning you are using a database, like Access|MySQL|MS SQL)

You're not using NT Authentication.
