    Hi I just set the role of a user to administrator but when that user logs in "Site Admin" link is not visible to him. What could be the problem.

    We're talking Site Admin and not Blog Admin, right?

    Dashboard -> Site Admin -> General -> Site Admin -> Is the account there? If not, add it in there.

    I did as follows
    Admin Login >> Users >> Set role as Admin

    I dont see General link in Dashboard >> Site Admin

    Under Site Admin I see
    Admin | Blogs | Users | Themes | Options | Upgrade

    Under Site Admin >> Admin ... I have Search Users and Search Blogs

    Under Site Admin >> Users .. I have
    Search users, Then whole lot of users ( and yes that user is listed here ), select users ( delete, mark as spammers ), Add user ( username, email )

    I am using WPMU 1.2.3

    You have t set them as a SiteAdmin on the MAIN blog.

    Site Admin -> Options. Scroll down till you see Administration Settings
    Site Admins:
    There's a text box. Plunk the username there.

    That's another way to do it.
