This has been discussed before on this list. See <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.018.htp> for information on searching the archives. Basically, if you want to keep the current roles as opposed to modifying one of the existing roles, you will need to implement a new script (a restricted version of admin), compile a CGI wrapper to invoke it and add an additional password attribute to validate this role and modify the existing admin General and Password pages to support this role and its password. This may not be a complete list. You could probably avoid adding a new script and CGI wrapper by modifying the existing admin script to not show things based on which password was used to login. This might be the simplest approach, particularly if all you wanted to do was eliminate certain whole pages from the restricted interface. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
