I even managed to set up ikiwiki so it works fine with git; but how on earth do
I log in as an administrator? In the .setup file the admin user is set to
'zimek' but when I go and register 'zimek' on the web it appears as normal user
not the administrator. What am I missing?

>> Maybe I'm indeed. I know that I've disabled all the plugins while installing ikiwiki. Checking it now ;-)

>> Yup, I'm the God of my ikiwiki. (Thanks)
