I have searched the archives for platform dependencies on security but did not find this problem. In FreePM I can add instances of the Employee ZClass (which adds a Zope user to FreePM/acl_users) on Linux as a Manager but on Win98SE, WinME & NT (others not tested) I get a permission error on manage_users. This traceback is from a WinME (don't ask why <g>) installation. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Site Error An error was encountered while publishing this resource.
