Max, Please read the section titled "The Superuser" in http://www.zope.org/Members/mcdonc/PDG/6-1-Security.stx. Your problem doesn't really have anything to do with Windows...

I decided to devote the weekend to installing a web server on my win2k pro box and bringing a site up. I chose zope because I needed to have some database stuff and I know python. Zope seemed a good fit and it is advertised as simple to administrate. I have installed a few IIS sites for clients.
I observe that you support win NT, but at this point, I am not sure if you support win2k?
My problem is whenever I try to use to management console, as to add a directory named for my domain, to start out on the content developer tutorial, I get a message something like superuser cannot own object. Although I have tried a few things, at the moment my zope account is the Administrator, since that seems like a good superuser account. I claim I am logged in as another user on the win2k box, who is a member of the administrator group.
Reading the Admistrative doc, this sounds a bit like the web server is not passing authetication information, but at the moment I claim I have only Zserver running. I had installed apache, but decided I did not need this and the doc suggested I needed to do a few extra steps to get started, and I only have a meg pipe anyway, so I stopped apache and let ZServer start as a systems process?
I hope someone kind will shed some light on my difficulty.
