Yes, I think you are right with: "higher up in the tree structure of the site" but this is not form IE, it don't works in Netscape 4.75 or 7.0 neither and so... I think the bug is from Zope, don't you think so?! or where is the mistake (I understand the facts but ".../StupidBug" and ".../StupidBug/" points to the same page). Regards, Rares

Hi,
Try something:
Create a folder in "Root Folder", for example "StupidBug". Inside this folder create a DTML Method "index_html" and inside it write "<dtml-var REQUEST>". Ok, now, in other browser window, access ".../StupidBug", you should see that you are "Anonymous User" right. Now change the address field of your browser to ".../StupidBug/manage_main", login as meneger. Now change your browser field address again to ".../StupidBug" and you should see that you are "Anonymous User", at least this is what I see. Stupid isn't it?! (I use Zope 2.5.1 and Internet Explorer 6.0)
Thanks in advance, Rares
I think this is not a bug. I also think this is Internet Explorer not sending credentials for where it thinks they don't belong, i.e. to places higher up in the tree structure of the site. /StupidBug is higher up than /StupidBug/something, and you just entered username/password in /StupidBug/something.
At least I think this is the case, you can verify this with shane's tcpwatch.py (->google).
cheers, oliver
