[Obm] Newbie questions

I'm using an Ubuntu Hardy system.  I'm in need of some basic CRM 
functionality and when poking around in Synaptic I found OBM.  I've 
installed it and think I have it running.  I've logged in as "admin" and 
changed my password.   I'll get to more later on that, but right now I 
have an issue where something in OBM is using a script at:

/usr/share/obm/www/cron/cron.php

and is complaining that it can't open an input file.

This is happening every minute and root is sending out an e-mail every 
minute complaining about it.  That's a LOT of junk coming to my in-box.

I followed the Hardy install instructions on the OBM website.  I 
installed Hardy from the "server" install, only picking openssh as an 
installed service.  Then I simply ran
apt-get install obm

and everything else followed.

Am I missing something?

As for authentication, do I need to use LDAP?  Everything is going to be 
local to just this host.  I don't have an LDAP server in my 
environment.  Is there a simpler default local authentication mechanism?

Thanks!

Russ

PS> Forgive the newbie questions, but the docs on the OBM website aren't 
much more than "here's how to install" and the mail archives aren't 
searchable.
