I'm a school teacher and want to set up a folder structure of users in =
Zope consisting of school class names, such as 12ITSAS, and then =
individual folders at the next level down for each individual student, =
Student1, Student2, Student3 etc.
I'm inexperienced with Zope but do have some background in programming.=20
I would like the students to have read only and copy rights at the =
12ITSAS level folder and manager rights in their individual, Student1, =
Student2 folders.=20
In that way I can provide them with resources within the 12ITSAS folder =
that they can't change at that level but which they can copy and change =
at the level of their folders.
I can't see how to do that efficiently using the Zope security model. =
When I provide students with Manager rights at the level of their =
individual folders (Student1, Student2 etc) then they can't access the =
12ITSAS folder because that is at a higher level. And of course if I =
give them Manager rights at the 12ITSAS folder level then they can =
modify what I supply them and invade each others folders.=20
Any assistance would be much appreciated.
