log in problem, all members can access control panel

[Migrated From Jforum.net]

When new members register or even excisting members log in they can get access to the the admin area. I've checked all the settings and they are under general and permissions is set to the right settings.

What is causing this problem?

Thanks

I am running a number of JForums experiencing this problem, can someone please advise on how to fix it? Is a retrograde necessary?

That sounds very strange.

First of all, make sure all your users belong only to the "General" group.

If you dont' want to manually do this, go to your database administration console and fetch all records from jforum_groups, and then match the group ids to the records of jforum_user_groups.

I would recommend either set again the permissions for all groups, and restart Tomcat, just to make sure there is no cached data left.

Btw, which JForum version and database are you using?
