Apparently, your "live" is a Z instance. It is quite easy to forget the ZClass permission mapping (or get it wrong). This may lead to strange permission problems. Which ZClass permission mapping? Anonymous seems to be able to 'view'.
The 'Manager' role can log in and do stuff, but even when I change the permissions of Anonymous to be completely the same as for Manager I don't get the same behaviour; ie anonymous is being asked to log in?
The problem I suppose is that /live/index_html is really a permission of /live and I guess the permissions determining access etc are really in / the object which cannot be traversed to :) well I upgraded my CVS version and everything started working again. Mumble. If only I hadn't tried to get the new Python methods to work etc etc dribble dribble. -- Robin Becker
