hello everyone,

I just learned how to use UserDB to have a login on my page. Okay, I got to the
point where I can login and the AUTHENTICATED_USER is set to my new username. 

But now how can I use this login and the Zope security features to actually
shut off sections of my site. Basically I want to make certain directories only
available to the logged in user. Note: I also created a new role. All users
that are authenticated and have this role can see a certain directory. Is it
right that I have to use the "Security" tab? What do I have to do?

regards,
stephan
