Brion, I've read the instructions in the links you sent but cannot find in my
Wiki's the "User Rights Management" page. Am I misreading the Wikimedia
instructions?

When installing the wiki I changed the Sysop name to a
my user name--assuming
I'd have Sysop and Bureaucrat status. Does that mean I'm logging in as the
bureaucrat and simply don't know it? How does one know if they have bureaucrat
or sysop status?
Which file would I look in to see how the bureaucrat was setup?
Special:Listusers to see.
