Trent, the part I glossed over was

>>1) you have bbpress installed and a new user created on the “bbPress” side which you granted “administrator” rights by the keymaster

Reading it now, it is obvious, but before – I was not creating a second user and giving him administrator rights. I was using my first “admin/keymaster” account as the main one.

Once I created that second account and followed the rest of your directions, the xmlrpc worked fine.

The other part was

6) …and go to the groups admin page.

It is actually the “bbPress Forums” page. Maybe the terms changed at some point.

As far as cookie integration, this seems to be the definitive resource so far

But I just can’t seem to make it happen yet.

Thanks for all the help Trent. I appreciate it.
