Hi all,
I'm managing several zope instances on a Solaris machine, and I'd like to pack them through crontab, as it is showed in the zope book.
http://zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/ MaintainingZope.stx
There are several root users on this machine, and I don't want to have a crontab visible (with password in clear) by others with manager rights. To connect to a zope instance, for security reason, I would have liked to have a user that could do only packing of the base. But there is no "security tab" in the in the database page of the control panel. So I cannot make a local role at this level.
Is there another way to give a user only this right (packing the database) or should I renonce!
Thank you in advance for your answer(s)!
You could make a small python script for the user and protect it the way you want. Forbid access to Control_Panel alltogether for these users (e.g. dont make them Manager at / ) and use Proxy roles on the scripts (make sure you removed "Change Python Scripts" in this context. Regards Tino
