If you set the number properly you won't get any errors. I'm still using the members files from the first version I installed and everytime I start fresh on the UBB install I change those two and it works 100 percent.
If these numbers aren't changed, or the extra lines removed from the members files then all the editing of other files won't fix the errors unless you hack out the check somehow.
Maybe we can get CC to drop in and give us the right info in case we're both wrong...
