I mean that I want to set files zope permissions. For example, i have a zope python script which must only be executed by users that have manager role. In order to do this i have 2 alternatives:

1- I can control the permission in the zope python script script

user = getAuthenticatedUser()
if(user has manager role)
  ...
else:
  go to login

2- I can put a special file like .metadata file and set the python script zope permissions. (I don't know how can i do this)

Thanks,

That's a strange question. If you put scripts or whatever inside a
directory configured as filesystem dirview then these files should be
readable by the Zope server process. I don't know where file permissions
are relevant here. The files must be readable...point.
