[Setup] Assigning role to group

[ysusanto]

Hi Steve,

Thank you for your reply.
I've manage to create group and assign members to it.

However, I am still facing another problem. I have a page called
"admin-apps" on root folder.
I have groups of admin; for example ITAdmin, HRAdmin. I have put members to
this group.
And i created a role called "AppAdmin" which has View access on "admin-apps"
page.

I have configured the following

ysusanto --> member of ITAdmin group (set in local_group)
ITAdmin group --> granted "AppAdmin" role (set in portal_role_manager page)

But I am still getting the following message when i logged in as ysusanto
and trying to view "admin-apps" page
======================================================================
Insufficient Privileges
You do not have sufficient privileges to view this page. If you believe you
are receiving this message in error, contact the site administration. 
======================================================================

I tried adding ITAdmin in the sharing tab. It doesn't work either.

I am only able to view the page if I grant "AppAdmin" role directly to
"ysusanto"

Do you have any idea where I might be doing wrong?

Thanks.

Joel
