[Zope] Re: Help with Authentication and Zope 2.6

[Mills Mr C P]

This is not the problem. I can authenticate and access the ZMI with no
problem. The problem I am having seems to be in the permissions on an
object. I don't seem to be able to make an object viewable only to
'authenticated' users.

Thanks for your suggestion anyway and very swift response anyway.

Please read Zope/doc/SECURITY.txt to create an Emergency User who can 
fix your security-settings.
