[Fedora-directory-users] Console Login Problem

[Jim Summers]

Hello List,

Now that I have cleaned my glasses and gotten a login prompt for the 
console, I am unable to get logged in.

I keep getting an error box stating that the Admin server is not running 
or the URL is not correct.

I am using the startconsole command given at the end of the install.

I tried to manully start the server with:
/opt/fedora-ds/start-admin

and got:

Syntax error on line 35 of /opt/fedora-ds/admin-serv/config/console.conf:
Error:\tApache has not been designed to serve pages while\n\trunning as 
root.  There are known race conditions that\n\twill allow any local user 
to read any file on the system.\n\tIf you still desire to serve pages as 
root then\n\tadd -DBIG_SECURITY_HOLE to the CFLAGS env variable\n\tand 
then rebuild the server.\n\tIt is strongly suggested that you instead 
modify the User\n\tdirective in your httpd.conf file to list a 
non-root\n\tuser.\n

I then edited:

./admin-serv/config/console.conf

and added the User and Group lines with apache as the user.

Then start-admin does not give any errors but I still can not connect. 
Also I do not see any associated running process other than the ns-slapd

Lost again,  ideas or suggestions?

I have installed: fedora-ds-1.0.1-1.FC4.i386.opt.rpm on a fully updated 
FC4 OS.

TIA
