hi everybody,

i can run different versions of zope and login as superuser, setup an
other user and change superuser account name and password. 

unfortunately i don't get authenticated when i want to login as user.
means i can do no work with content at all in zope. 

is it normal that when i go to change the user password it shows a
different amount of *s there?

how does the authentication work?
do any files have to be at special places for authentication?
do any files need any special permission for this?

my system
i have it run under wwwrun:nogroup and the directory 
/opt/zope is root:root
/opt/zope/var is wwwrun:nogroup and 755
except of files Z2.log, pcgi.soc, zProcessManager.pid that are root:root

i installed zope 2.2.2, 2.2.4, compiled a 2.2.4, used an rpm, always the
same problem
latest i used an installation description for suse 6.4 ... -- no help
did a lot as you see

my system is a suse linux 7.0 with the update to kde2.0
