zope-2.8.8 freebsd-4.11

okay I've followed the directions on the zope website, in the PDF, and the Zope/doc docs. Could not really find the proper cure.

Then I made an instance and placed it in /usr/local/www/Zope

Started zope and the username and password does not work.

there is an entry in Z2.log everytime I go to the link and everytime

What am I doing wrong?

the Zope/inituser is where I thought things should authenticate?

Anyways I must really be missing something.

cheers,
