got the simple login screen. I entered the values 'jorge' for the username and 'secret' for the password. When I pressed Ok, I didn't see the index_html file for the folder, instead I got the login screen once again. Can someone help me out with some ideas on what I might have done wrong (or not done at all?)

I can't help, 'cause I need the same assistance you do. I'm seeing exactly the same thing. [...]

So, what are James and I doing wrong? We just followed the cookbook for the simplest test case...

Sounds like you havn't granted permission for user jorge to view the documents. Simple way to test this is to edit userRoles so that jorge is a member of the Manager role.

I must be missing a key thing. I've created a normal folder for the purposes of testing GUF. Inside this folder I have a GUF called acl_users. I open the acl_users folder. I click on the User List tab and I get a message telling me that "there are no users defined". If I edit the userList DTMLMethod, I see that this method has two names, fred and jorge. If I edit userRoles, I see that if the userid is "jorge" the role "specialrole" is answered, otherwise defaultrole is answered. I added "specialrole" as one of my roles and gave this role the ability to view contents. Still nothing. I have a feeling there is some key concept or item that I'm not configuring properly but I have yet to figure out what it is. Can anyone provide any clues as to what I'm missing? Thanks. James W.
