I recently had to move my Web Wiz forum to another server. I had saved the previous forum .mdb file.
I extraced the forum to the new location; and everything seemed fine
(all of the forums are present; all users are there). However, My
account (the Site Admin) has lost the ability to access the Admin
configuration board. (it simply says "Sorry, only members with sufficient permission can access this page.")
I can actually log in through '/forum/admin/' with the default Username
and password (Administrator; and 'letmein'), but for some strange
reason, the configuration that shows up is the default settings, and
looks nothing like my previous forum.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can set my previous account to access the admin board?

It sounds like your forum is accessing two different databases.
There are two coomon.asp files, one in the admin section and one in the main forum files.
Make sure both files are accessing the same database.
