notebook version login

I'm moving to a new linux box. Old box had Sage 5.4. Installed Sage 5.10 on the new box. When I type

sage -notebook

the text says to open my web browser to http://localhost:8080. Doing this in Firefox, I get a login page. It says 'Sign into the Sage Notebook 5.10'. My standard sagenb login name and password do not work. To check this, I opened another tab on the browser and went to www.sagenb.org. This gives a similar looking page, except now it says "Sign into the Sage Notebook 5.4' instead of 'Sage 5.10'. And the Sage logo on the top left says Sage 5.4 instead of 5.10. Here my standard sagenb name and password DO work. I can see several old notebooks I must have created when learning Sage.

One issue may be that, since the IT staff moved over my old home directory, I still have my original settings. I checked my $HOME/.tcshrc, for example, but there is nothing here related to the browser. (I did change SAGE_ROOT to point to the new sage install and sourced the file - the "sage" command itself works fine).

So why does www.sagenb.org still point me to 5.4? And why can't I log onto the 5.10 version? Checked the FAQ section, etc. Thanks.
