Hi there,

I'm using a ZCatalog in Zope 2.1 to catalog a site. I set it so that it would only catalog objects where Anonymous has permission 'access contents information'. If I do that, however, it doesn't seem to work right. Only a few objects (if any) get catalogued, instead of all of them. Can anyone explain? Or is this a bug?

Replying to myself: I've been testing (advanced) 'find' in a simple setup and I can't figure out the behavior regarding security at all: Root folder, and inside that we have folders a and b. Folder a has a subfolder c, folder b has a subfolder d The search is each time for 'folder' with Anonymous 'access contents information': * 'access contents information' in root has acquisition checked, but Anonymous unchecked (but it should be acquiring that access contents information is allowed for anonymous) Finds nothing * 'access contents information' in root has acquisition checked, and Anonymous is checked as well. Folders 'a' and 'b' are now found, but 'c' and 'd' aren't. Why? Regards, Martijn
