[opencms-dev] Confirming sub Organizational Unit users/groups permissions bug

Yes, if I view a list of role "Account Managers" root ou I only see Admin
and if I view it for the sub ou I see my new user and Admin. However, when
logged in as my new user, the default view for the Account Management
displays also the root ou.

I also tried this with both login as Admin in root ou and my sub ou, but it
was the same result.

Maybe I will try this with HEAD on Monday. Never installed HEAD version of
OpenCms. Is this relatively easy process or do I have to start installing
ant and all other developer stuff?

Regards,

Olli

Ok, i do the same but in the HEAD and the user can not see any ou, since 
he is account manager of a single ou the ou selection screen is skipped, 
and there is no way for him to get there.

are you sure you give him the account manager role for his ou and not 
for the root ou?

Kind regards,
Michael
