hi everybody, i can run different versions of zope and login as superuser, setup an other user and change superuser account name and password. unfortunately i don't get authenticated when i want to login as user. means i can do no work with content at all in zope. is it normal that when i go to change the user password it shows a different amount of *s there? how does the authentication work? do any files have to be at special places for authentication? do any files need any special permission for this? my system i have it run under wwwrun:nogroup and the directory /opt/zope is root:root /opt/zope/var is wwwrun:nogroup and 755 except of files Z2.log, pcgi.soc, zProcessManager.pid that are root:root i installed zope 2.2.2, 2.2.4, compiled a 2.2.4, used an rpm, always the same problem latest i used an installation description for suse 6.4 ... -- no help did a lot as you see my system is a suse linux 7.0 with the update to kde2.0 -- soli-con Engineering Zanger Dipl.-Ing.
