Local Roles - taking away further down the tree?
Hi there, First, AFAIK local roles are acquired further down the tree - if I assign a local role, the user will have that local role in that folder's children too. Is is possible to "remove" the local role of a user in a folder/set of folders further down the tree? If this is not possible and maybe even a stupid idea, please fire away - I need some ammo to convince the client that this is anyway not a good idea - even if it cannot be done! Thanks Etienne

Yup.

Yup, but only in Zope 3 :-S

How about down the line making a new local role -same name, but with less privileges, that will overload? On Tuesday, December 17, 2002, at 05:05 AM, Etienne Labuschagne wrote:

We have made a "Local Roles Blacklist" patch that does this. http://www.zope.org/Members/regebro/LRBlacklist It's made for Zope 2.3, but I think it works with 2.5 and 2.6 too, although that's untested.
