[Zope-dev] roles, permissions problem

[Dirk Datzert]

Hi Dieter,

you were right but in a way you will not expect:

I digged into User.py / allowed and their are the user_roles checked
against the object_roles, and in this function the 'Author' is not
user_roles.

But in the AUTHENTICATED_USER / LDAPRoleTwiddler the roles are displayed
correct.

Regards,
Dirk
