Completely bizarre. I can't think of any way this could happen in a normal environment. I'm 99.9% certain it's not a Moodle problem.

What authentication method are you using? Do all the machines access the server through a cache proxy of some sort?

It's almost like the clients are sharing cookies or ther server is confusing sessions. You could try upgrading PHP and Apache on the server.

Can you explain more clearly what you're seeing? I think you're talking about something else than the default username that is shown in the login screen (that Tom mentioned).

Each person has a unique session. New account are created as soon as you hit the "Create my new account" button on the "New Account" screen. The form data is checked then fed straight into the function that creates the database entry and sends off the confirmation email.

What authentication method are you using? Is this class sharing computers in some way?

The key thing here is when Moodle gets the server name from the function qualified_me() in lib/weblib.php.

It gets this from server environment variables HTTP_HOST, or SERVER_NAME if it can't find HTTP_HOST.

So it looks like an Apache configuration problem, perhaps you need to set up a virtual server for the external address, or change the default host to be the external address.

This problem will probably cease to exist when I review all the referer stuff in a future version.

Make sure that your path for dirroot in config.php:

$CFG->dirroot = "c:\apache\htdocs\mytry\moodle";

is using the correct upper/lower case everywhere. I know Windows doesn't care about case, but sometimes PHP does.

Also, in the current development version (AFTER Moodle 1.0.8.1) the fonts have moved (into the language packs).

Non: $CFG->dirroot = "http://e.formezvous.free.fr/moodle/";

Oui: $CFG->dirroot = "/var/www/free.fr/14/e/./f/o/e.formezvous/moodle/";
