K, here goes, explanation 3 :) This is what I would like to happen:
A user goes to the site, he see the log in screen that has 2 entry fields - user name and password. The user enteres the data and presses the submit button. Now I want to take what the user entered and see if I have the same user and password defined in acl_users folder, if so I want to give him the role that that user in the acl_users folder have. And than based on that role direct him to the appropriate page What I don't want is that the zope will pop up his log in window, in essence I want to do my own authentication, validation and role assigning. Ihope this clears up what I want, I thought about using the PAS plugin but I have no idea how to use it and I was told I can do what I want without using any plugins at all. -----Original Message----- From: Lennart Regebro [mailto:rege...@gmail.com] Sent: Sunday, March 08, 2009 10:42 AM To: Dvir Bar-lev Cc: zope@zope.org Subject: Re: [Zope] how to check a user role with data entred by user?

You gave Zoe the role "Manager", you say. OK. Done. You don't need to do anything more. I suspect you still need to explain, not what you are trying to do, but what you are trying to achieve. Explain the usecase. -- Lennart Regebro: Pythonista, Barista, Notsotrista. http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64 _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
