Can some one explain how the Define Permissions screen works. I really don't understand the concept behind it, what does it mean for a permission setting to own a permission?
All I need to do is to make certain ZClass methods have a certain level of security and the other methods of the class have no security. It is quite good explain in the upcoming Zope book.

In fact, I think Alex was referring to ZClass security, which isn't covered in the book, and is something I've never go to the bottom of either. on the 'define permissions' tab, it says: The table below has two columns. The first column lists the permissions for this object. The second column specifies the permissions that should have this permission in this product or ZClass. I'm probably being intellectually lazy or something, but that doesn't make any sense to me at all. seb.

Proxies I can almost cope with, ie this is a trusted method make it behave as though it were ZopeGod I can understand. -- Robin Becker
