Ran into this one again today.
When you try to install a NPM in iManager you can not even see the option for module installation under the configuration section.
When you install iManager you specify an Admin user that can install plug-ins and this must
match the user you login with.
Check out some of these:

Windows Time Sync
Well I've been having time problems in Windows for a while, considering we are running it in VMware and we normally don't use AD. I'd thought I'd write a quick one on how to configure a NTP time source on Windows. This seems to work on both Windows XP and 2003.
Change the following registry settings:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters\Type : NTP
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters\NtpServer : IP Address of Time Server
If you use a DNS name you need to add the 0x1 suffix e.g. tock.usno.navy,0x1
Once you've changed the registry settings stop/start the W32 service:
net stop w32time
net start w32time
And then you can also force a resync with the command:
w32tm /resync
The output should say something like '...command successfully completed.'

VMware Problem on SLES10 SP2
There seems to be a problem with VMware Server 1.0X on SLES10 SP2 i386.
When you try to browse for a VM the VMware interface seems to hang.
Easist way to fix this is to edit the vmware script /usr/bin/vmware
and add the line:
export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes
So the file looks something like this:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Copyright 2005 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
#
# Wrapper for the real 'vmware' binary. Ensure that the binary will find
# all the shared libraries it needs. If a shared library is not available from any
# of the standard system-wide locations, we provide it from the location where
# the VMware software is installed. --hpreg
#
export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes
# BEGINNING_OF_DB_DOT_SH
#!/bin/sh
#
# Manage an installer database
#
# Add an answer to a database in memory
db_answer_add() {
