Sage Line 50 v10

I've just spent a couple of days screaming at Sage Line 50 trying to get it working over a VPN. The application finds the data path, allows the user to select a company, but when credentials are entered, it says:

"You have entered an invalid password". I've checked the credentials at the local site and they work, so spent some time mystified.

Eventually I found the solution, but it had nothing to do with the VPN - it was actually an issue with the directory access that is assigned to the Saqe user. If the application is installed by a different user (ie Administrator) then you need to allow Everyone full control access to the /Documents and Settings/All Users and all child objects within.
