I can't help, 'cause I need the same assistance you do.  I'm seeing
exactly the same thing.  In fact, I also tried something else: left
the folder containing the GenericUserFolder with normal permissions,
and created a subfolder where I removed all inherited permissions.
I then edited the authenticateUser method so that it always returned
'1'.  I *still* kept getting the login screen when going into the
subfolder.  Then I guess a timeout expired and I could no longer
get into the main folder management screen from the browser I was
authenticated as manager, so I deleted the whole mess <wry grin>.

So, what are James and I doing wrong?  We just followed the cookbook
for the simplest test case...
