Hi, Thanks for responding. The new user has manager role! I assume that this user would have access to the whole Zope 'web', am I right?

Hi all,

My first posting to the list so be patient 8^).

I set up the server as specified in the docs, but when I do this I get an error message as follows:-

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

...

--- HTTP Error 401 401.5 Unauthorized: Authorization failed by ISAPI/CGI app

This error indicates that the address on the Web server you attemped to use has an ISAPI or CGI program installed that verifies user credentials before proceeding. The authentication used to connect to the server was denied access by this program.

Please make a note of the entire address you were trying to access and then contact the Web server's administrator to verify that you have permission to access the requested resource.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I turned on the basic-authentication and was able to log in as the user specified in the 'access' file.

Great!

I have now created a new user 'test1' with password 'test1' but am unable to login as this user, it just will not validate.

I must be doing something wrong 8^(.

Any ideas.

What roles did you give this new user?

Jim
