Told you I must be retarded.  I saw the options for the parental controls
and putting a pin but aparently am not grouping properly as you either had
to put in a pin to see anything, or no pin gave you everything.

I have noted you reponse and will try in a few days as I am getting ready to
rebuild my entire setup on 0.21 with a fresh database, and I will just dump
my videos, recording and relevent SQL into the new DB.  I will try to get it
to work at that time.  Thanks alot.

PS: Dont tell anyone I have "Non Wife Aware" related questions on my mythbox
;-) lol  Not like everyone in the world just read my post from before...
arrgh.. Why dont I just shut up now.

PPS: What I meant to say was hypothetically, if someone wanted that type of
configuration... I mean, this "Friend I know" was asking me about...
Nevermind. lol.
