Hello , I have a problem regarding authentication and I do not know if authorisation. Users working IE5.01 SP2 cannot access my site. To enter it, I force them to login. When they do, their login and password is not rejected, but if I display their role/s and user name on screen it is Role: ('Anonymous',) Name: Anonymous User. Some of the access of my site is granted by checking that their role is not Anonymous, (tried also their user name is not 'Anonymous User'), therefore they cannot access. Surprisingly one of these users has Manager role. He still cannot access those parts of the site...but he can access the management screens of the site and access its content objects. Somehow zope still "knows" that he is not anonymous. This problem does not occur with IE 5.5 and IE 4.0. Has anyone have a clue of what happens. Could someone please point me to the solution? Thanks in advance for your help. Belen

A well known problem with early IE 5.0 versions.
Upgrade to IE 5.5 or IE 6... Dieter
