Looks like you were able to fix it logged in as an Admin - for the record / documntation, what needed to be done?

I fixed it in PhpMyAdmin before synching.  You had 27 entries in the ACL that had no corresponding users in the jos_users table.  It looks like at some point the jos_users table was emptied, but the ACL was not.

My conversion is done, and the new site is up and running smoothly.  The old PHPNuke site is still in existence, although not in use.  All the users are in SMF and Joomla now, and it looks like the groups have synced successfully as well.

Something I have noticed, however, is that users who are Admins cannot log into the Administrator section of Joomla - they are getting a Bad Username / Password error.  I am trying to log in using my personal account (GJSchaller), and am unable to do so.  I can log in as the original Superuser account, but not as anyone else, even after verifying they have Admin permissions in Joomla, and removing and re-adding those permissions / ranking.  I can edit & update stories normally within Joomla, indicating I do have some permissions - I just can't seem to log into the Administrator interface with a non-Superuser account.

Any insight or hep would be appreciated!

Yes, being a Linux fan, I am in the habit of typing the same case wether it's sensitive or not. ;-)  I can log into Joomla fine with that ID (GJSchaller), just not the Admin portion of it.

Users that are synched from SMF to Joomla will need to change their password once before they can login to the Joomla admin panel.  (You can use the same password, as long as you go to the profile, and go through the process of changing it.)
