That's what I thought I was trying to do.  This is what the 
documentation says.  I assume it means go to http://horde.mydomain.com, 
click on a Setup tab, then an Administration tab, then start in the 
Authentication tab.

"6. Completing Configuration

You can now access Horde without a password, and you will be logged in 
as an administrator.
...
Click on Setup in the Administration menu and configure Horde. Start in 
the Authentication tab."

*sighs*  I see.  You mean http://horde.mydomain.com/admin/setup/index.php
I'm very sorry to bother you all.  May I suggest, however, that the 
documentation in that area be made a little more explicit?

Thank you for your patience and time.
