Hi, all. Using LocalFS 0.9.6 on Zope 2.2.2/Python 1.5.2 under Linux 2.4.1 Here's the scenario... Set up a folder "UserAccess", set up user defined role "rmsuser". Inside UserAccess, set up a LocalFS object "LFS" w/ proper base path. Inside UserAccess, added "acl_users" folder, added user "RMS_User", assigned role "rmsuser". Folder "UserAccess" permissions set to: Acquire = none Anonymous = none Manager = all Owner = none rmsuser = access contents information, delete local files, manage local files, overwrite local files, upload local files, view LocalFS Object permissions set to: same as above. There's an "index_html" DTML Method in "UserAccess" which has the upload form, but permissions are set to aquire = all checked, and the <input type="hidden" name="action" value="../index_html"> is included in the FORM. (Funny aside: found out 'action' was supported in the form only AFTER changing LocalFS.py... what a dolt! ;) Here's the problem... 1) When logged into Zope as the user with "Manager" role, I can upload & overwrite, no problem. 2) When logged into Zope as RMS_User with "rmsuser" role (from a totally different machine, so no problems w/ REQUEST[AUTHENTICATED_USER]), I can upload, but not overwrite. 3) Still "rmsuser" role: If I go back and change permissions on "UserAccess" and "LFS" so "rmsuser" role has all checked (identical permissions to "Manager" role), uploads OK, but still no overwrite. 4) Still "rmsuser" role: However, if I go in "UserAccess" and add local role of "rmsuser ==> Manager", upload & overwrite works. This is bad, though, because I don't want "rmsuser" to be able to access the Zope management screens. I've checked just about everywhere for that one little nugget of LocalFS/Zope truth, but it still eludes me. Is there something that I'm overlooking??
