[Zope] user accounts

This is a problem that has dogged us for ages, and this is probably 
the third time we've asked for help here. Basically, new users 
added to specific folders within Zope (via the acl_users folder) 
cannot login to the system. The only account that seems to work 
fine is the one for the 'admin' user.

The most annoying thing about this is that it *did* work when we 
first installed Zope, but somewhere down the line it stopped. This 
has happened on two different servers with two different operating 
systems (Sun SOlaris and now Linux) and two different versions of 
Zope (2.4.1 and 2.4.3).

It's a fairly serious problem if we want to use Zope to handle our 
main web site in the future. Anyone had this and solved it? Does 
v2.5 have this as well?
