I am trying out Zope on SuSE Linux 8.0 Professional. The software is bundled with SuSE 8 and is installed by the system installer and automatically started by the system. Because of this, I do not get the Username/Password combination printed at startup. I have examined the inituser file and can see the username, but the password is encrypted. So I used zpasswd.py to change the inituser password, but for some reason I can still not log in. Authentication failed...would you like to try again..blahblah. I have tried this several times with diferrent username password cobinations(real simple ones) so no fingertrouble. After using zpasswd.py I verify that it actually did change the inituser wich it has, but no entry allowed. Are you sure, you change the correct "inituser"?

It looks as if you would change the wrong copy. Use "ls -lu" to verify that Zope really reads this file. Dieter
