I believe I've uncovered a bug in Koha's handling of basic authentication in 2.2.3.
I don't think basic authentication is supported in Koha 2.2.3 I got things working by switching off basic authentication
If you log in using sesion ID's and cookies and all this, the checkauth function will sooner or later have a line like: $flags = haspermission($dbh, $userid, $flagsrequired);
This will happen before it returns $flags.
But in the case of basic authentication, $flags is never assigned anything before it is returned. The result of this is that when I use basic authentication, I can't see any parameters in the parameters page. Nigel Titley <nigel@titley.com> was having some problems like this around July 30, 2005.
When I applied this change to /usr/local/lib/koha/intranet/modules/Auth.pm, I could see all the parameters on the parameters page that I should be able to see as a superlibrarian. The patch follows.
