Post installation

I have just finished my testsite which I have had at following adress
http://mysite.org/Drupal

and Gallery2 was at the following adress
http://mysite.org/Drupal/Gallery2

Now I wanted to launch my new site and moved my Drupal installation to the root, like this
http://mysite.org
changed settings.php and the installation worked very good.
But for one thing.

I'd like to add a bit of text to the login block, informing users as to benefits of registering. Is there any way to do this without changing code?

I'm a big fan of the SEF feature provided by Drupal's mod_rewrite capabilities and URL aliases. One question however -> does using the URL alias result in duplicate links that will be penalized by search engines?

ie. does
clean URL : http://example.com/node/1 with
alias : http://example.com/front-page

result in search engines indexing both these links and penalizing for duplicate content?

Thanks so much,
Alex

Is it possible to setup different profiles for users within different roles.

i'd like the bloggers of my site to have one profile, and I'd like to registered users of the site to have a different profile.

Is this possible in 4.7?

Hi,

I have gone through the install process, everything is fine, now I have to login and I get this message after clicking the "create new account" button:

warning: mail(): Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in c:\programmi\easyphp1-8\www\drupal\modules\user.module on line 394.

How can I connect to a mailserver from my localhost? I have checked other threads on this topic, really tried hard to search a solution, but I failed miserably. :(

Here's my configuration:

Hey all-

Just trying to clean up a issue that has cropped up. I am getting a lot of anonymous user denied warnings in watchdog. For the longest time I thought it was a bot or a script kiddie trying to acces my brand spanking new drupal 4.6.X site. But soon I realized that the warnings followed everything that I as admin did! It is as if there was an anonymous echo being denied everything that I can do.

Should I be worried????
