Great!

Thanks a lot for tracking that one down, Howard!

I should add that this is a solution for Apache 2 only (but that could well be everyone who had the problem!).

I've updated the FAQ and the Install docs to include this information.

I'm pretty sure it is a small error of some kind in your config.php.

If you can't find the problem try posting config.php here (after you hide your database password).

I was moodling on something completely unrelated (reading a book on ethnography actually), but had a bit a brain flash about running Moodle in a firewall situation where you want people to access the same server as two different IPs (inside and outside).

I think the easiest solution is to run two separate copies of Moodle that share the same database! This way they will use different config.php info but will share everything else. Wish I'd thought of this before!

Just make sure the Moodle installations are exactly the same version, otherwise things could get messy.

It recently occurred to me that you could use two Moodle installations that share one database!

You can also run two Moodle installations that share the same database.
