The setting:

For what permissions did you do this? Try "access contents information". Then Zope won't be able to tell if it can acquire index_html or not before authenticating.. .. -steve
In foo, I define the index_html method.
In foo/bar I have file.txt
The issue:
If I try to access foo/bar, I do not get authenticated -- it _seems_ to be going by the permissions govering foo/index_html, instead of foo/bar (before accessing) foo/bar/index_html (and then, lacking that, inheriting).
If I try to access foo/bar/file.txt, I get asked to authenticate.
This is wholly counterintuitive to someone who first did his authenticating years ago using .htaccess files -- permissions on a folder should affect attempts to acquire any resource within that folder, *regardless* of whether that resource is inherited or not!
Is there a fix to this that doesn't involve the (less scalable) notion of copying the index_html method from the top into this directory?
