Being new to localfs, I don't really know if it is odd or normal, but it
seems "odd".
The unprivileged (but "authenticated") zope user is asked to reenter their
login details (basic http auth) when they try to click on the link to the
localfs object, and not allowed to view it. But if i grant the user the zope
"Manager" role, they are let in.

Hope this clarifies the problem.
