Menu Module help

This module would fit my needs perfectly if it were modified to allow role-based access via Drupal Permissions settings. I think it would also significantly improve the applicability of the module by enabling quasi-customizable (role/permission-based ) menus. For example, in my case it would allow me to present a webmail access link only to certain members of my community to whom I have assigned username@mydomain.com email addresses. Jim, any chance of seeing this modification?

Which File-Type Module to Use??

(I am using Drupal 4.3.2)

A simple question, I'm sure...But I am confused about which file upload/download/view module to use. I have seen filestore module, file module, and the fs module as projects.

My requirements are to be able to upload a file to either the file system, with the metadata being stored in the database and/or upload a file and its metadata to the database. After the file is available on the server, then I would like a user to have the option to either download or view the file.

Users can change passwords, Admin can't edit profiles / roles of users.

Did the install, everything looks great, works fine, - EXCEPT, i cant change my own password, neither can any of the users, and I can't change the role of any user, i submit changes for passwords, roles, etc but they dont 'stick' ...

otherwise it works, any ideas?

Web mail access link in navigation block

Now that I have my Drupal site up and running, I would like to implement a feature that I think others might find useful. Here's a description of what I'm looking for:

My web host allows me to configure up to X mailboxes associated with my domain name. I want to assign these mailboxes to a subset of my site's registered users (e.g., username@mydomain.com, where "username" is the same as the user's registered name on my website --BTW, I expect to manually create these email accounts using my webhost's email admin tools). I then want to allow these select users to access my webhost's webmail login page from a link within the navigation block (preferrably directly above the "administer" link).

I don't wan't anything fancy like auto-login; I just want the user to be taken:

(a) to a static page with a frame that displays the webmail login form.

Or,

(b) directly to the webmail login page.

Is this capability implemented in an existing Drupal module?

I have searched and could not find anything similar, so I am trying to fugure out how to implement it myself. So far, I have created a special role for individuals that I want to assign a username@mydomain.com email to. However, I don't know where to start to implement the desired changes to the Navigation block, or creation of the associated static page/frameset, and linking it to the Navigation block code (Perhaps because I am an absolute newbie, with no business even thinking about these kinds of changes).

fatal error with search

I just installed drupal 4.3.2 on a linux rh9 + apache 2.0 + mysql 3.23. I'm starting to play around with it: create user account , create content.. But when i try to search for content in the administer corner i'm getting consistently this fatal error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: do_search() in /home/drupal/modules/node.module on line 484

I'd like to avoid to dig in the code and see if someone has an idea or an answer to this issue.

Thks for your help
