Hi All

We've been experiencing a no. of random though isolated incidences of users unsuccessfully logging into Sakai( with their correct details ) but with their browser window immediately  returning a screen which shows SAKAI  admin user rights i.e they somehow manage to log into SAKAI as an admin! Obviously this poses a huge security breach for  us. Has anyone else ever experienced this?
