So, I just decided to switch to mysql authentication and create some users.
 Once I did that and logged in, the backend configuration and "User not
authorized for gollem" error went away.  Seems like something in the
default "Automatic authentication" was not good enough for gollem!

So now I am able to login to SSH2, but I am uncertain how to set 'root' and
'home' in the backends.local.php file.  Our SFTP automatically directs
users to their home dir based on their login.  So I would think I should
set both root and home to an empty string or perhaps "/".  However, when I
do either of those, I get this error in the lower right corner:

*Cannot create home directory: Unable to create VFS directory ""*
*
*
I have 'createhome' set to false, so I'm not sure why it is even trying.
 But I am unclear what the root is at this point.  Is the File Manager GUI
supposed to show any folder hierarchy?  It just says "There are no files in
this folder".  I created some folders and files and they showed up on the
server, but i was just aiming in the dark.  From a user's perspective, I
really had no idea where they were going.


Thanks for your help so far.  I appreciate it!
