    This isn't the exact set of errors we had, but I'm guessing the problem
    is the same. Your running Apache as the user www, and more specifically,
    as a user with a UID < 1000. Evidently, it's been hardcoded into the FP
    binaries that the UID must be greater than 1000.

    Set the apache/frontpage user so that the UID > 1000 and everything
    should work (don't forget to reset the permissions on the related
    directorys)
