Re: [Zope] [HELP] Zope local roles and LDAP Groups

Jens Vagelpohl writes:

... in order to use a role that a user has because his record is in a certain group in LDAP (first of all, look at the user object to make sure the role is actually assigned!) you need to create a role of the same name in zope using the Security tab in a folder or at the root. then you can assign all the permissions you want to this role, also on the Security tab. the user that has this special role from LDAP will then have those permissions in that location and "below". I have an extension to your LDAPUserFolder which allows mapping from LDAP groups to Zope roles.

If you are interested, I can package the patch and send it to you. Dieter
