[horde] RESOLVED: Cannot revert back to default horde settings for root "/horde" directory

[Spyros Tsiolis]

Chaps,

 I managed to put back everything in its place as it was.

I couldn't logon to the system because I changed the "cookie"
parameter and the system no longer logged me in (it gave me the
impression that it tried to log me in, then kicked me out before I
had a chance to logon).
 However, i found the relevant file ("conf.php") and managed
to put back what it was in there.

However, many of you might say that I am lazy and don't hunt down
the horde documentation pages!
Well I got an answer for you. I prefer to be called "lazy" than to
break my systems. I've been trying the pages the last couple of days
and never managed to make something work out of them.

As I stated in my previous post, the docs leave a _lot_ to be desired and
are not up-to-date in any case. 

I am _not_ consulting them again.

If you chaps want to give me a helping hand that's fine. But I am not
going through _that_ once more :-)

So, thank you and please advise,

Thank you again,

Spyros

P.S. If something works though I am willing to contribute to the 
documentation if you would like someone to help, that is.
