Hello All:

I am using a site developed by a third party using Silverstripe.

The site is online and, in general, functioning properly.

A number of different people are responsible for the site's content.

In order to exercise better control over the content change process, I have proposed setting up user groups.

In order to test this, I have setup a restricted user group and created one user as a member.

This group can only make changes in the news part of the site.

When I try to login as this new user, I get the following message:

"I'm sorry, but you can't access that part of the CMS. If you want to log in as someone else, do so below"

FYI, the login screen is accessed via:

<sitename>/admin

Is this a problem generic to this site's configuration or is it a Silverstripe problem?

Thanks,

ss/wb
