you can always do a copy and delete to take ownership... (albeit that may cause other probs...) my problem is that I need to be able to construct a zclass built by a user who no longer exists. My suspicion is that "nobody" does not have those privileges, and so it seems that I may be SOL :-( -----Original Message----- From: Chris Withers [mailto:chrisw@nipltd.com] Sent: Friday, April 13, 2001 5:50 AM To: R.

Like I said (and the docs say), it is the interesection of the two sets of privileges, so it is effectively just the permissions of user nobody.
This isn't very useful though ;-) I ended up re-creating a whole folder tree just because I wanted to delete the user who created them, and Zope 2.2.4 doesn't appear to have a 'Take Ownership' button :-( *grumbling* Chris :-)
