I just noticed that my "Members" group is NOT a child of "Guests" so I
sent you a bum steer there. Apologies.<br>
So, I dont know what is wrong with you :-) but the way you are trying
to do this is correct from by reading.<br>
<br>
I use version 6.2.3 but I still experience the same behaviour that you
do.<br>
I think this is a bug in opencms permissions or both you and I are
misunderstanding.<br>
<br>
I have read and reread the parts of chapter 4 and chapter 5 of
"Managing and Customising opencms 6" and I think that the permission
control you are using should work.<br>
<br>
<b>My conclusion is that</b> <b>if a group "Members" is a child of
group "Guests" then the permissions given to "Guests" overrides
permissions given to the "Members".<br>
</b><br>
The only solution is to remove the child relationship. Maybe the
"Guests" group is special and this works if we create our own
parent-child hierarchy or maybe it works correctly for users rather
than webusers.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, I do not have time to experiment and in any case I think
someone from Alcakon should clear up the matter as it is fundamental.<br>

Is this a problem of inheritance?<br>
I have done exactly this.<br>
I have a group of webuser "Members"<br>
I have a directory "memberarea"<br>
I deny all access to Guests on "memberarea", including the inheritance
tick<br>
box<br>
I allow view access to all "Members", including inheritance.<br>
<br>
The membership area disappears from menus<br>
