I'd like to take advantage of Zope's ability to have separate acl_user folders in sub folders to manage security in Plone 2.0 RC2.
I'ved tried adding acl_users in a sub folder but Plone doesn't seem to recognize the users.
Anyone have any ideas on if and how this can work?
Does anyone know of a good solution to give certain users full access to some folders but no access to others without creating a large administrative burden?
Plone, being portalish, probably isn't going to play nice with that scheme. Some folks are working on sub-portals, but that's a "see it when you see it" thing. The answer is "local roles", which is available in the "sharing" tab in Plone 2. Just make the default Member roles restrictive and create a new role that is less so (or use an existing one, like Manager) and grant this role via local roles. --jcc -- "My point and period will be throughly wrought, Or well or ill, as this day's battle's fought."
