Restrict local roles in subfolder..HOW??
Dear All, I have encountered a real strange problem! I have given a local role called 'view' to 'user1' in the 'Folder1' so that 'user1' CAN access 'Folder1'. and there is a subfolder of 'Folder1' called 'Folder1.1' in which there are no local roles defined in it for 'user1' so that 'user1' CAN NOT access 'Folder1.1' When I try the above system then to my surprise 'user1' is still able to view the contents of 'Folder1.1' !!! (PS:-the view role has 2 permissions:- access contents information ,view. 'Folder1.1' is aquiring all the permisions from 'Folder1' Also I dont want change the Aquisitions of Folder1.1 or modify any permissions.This is the requirement of the project.) Kindly HELP ME ! Best Regards, Vineet Ahuja ABB,CRC,Germany

Yes, that is how it works. Local roles are inherited from folders above, so it's not strange at all. We have developed a product that adds the possibility to block out local roles, so you can easily do what you want. It is called "Enhanced version of local roles" and can be found on my Zope page: http://www.zope.org/Members/regebro
