I created the access file and was able to get to the main page and from there to the ZMI to make my backup. Thanks a lot.

[Yes, I'm really talking about the original server where I can not authenticate.] There is no corruption, no. You will always be able to repair this using the emergency user. See SECURITY.txt in the Zope source code for how to create it. inituser is something different and will not help you. [Ok, I'll have access to the machine on Monday and see what turns up. What I don't understanda is why Zope would suddenly want to authenticate access to a page that was always available to anyone. I'll post back after checking the results.] jens _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) --------------------------------- Yahoo!
