... The only thing that I don't manage to do is, in FTP or WebDAV, to restrict a user view (a directory listing) to the only files that he can effectively download (for these files, they can be effectively downloaded, but they are actually seen in the list !).
I've tried to play with "manage_FTPlist" and "manage_FTPstat" methods, both on my folderish product and on my custom folder items (by returning exceptions or returning None values), but didn't manage until now to get a good result (the list is often completely empty when access is forbidden even for a single file !).
The right approach would be to customize the "manage_FTPlist" method of the container. For this, you would locate the standard source (using e.g. "DocFinder") and try to understand it. You would then start to modify the source (probably in a copy) to filter out objects without access rights. -- Dieter
