Hi, I also tried to get the patch working with 2.2CVS PTK CVS and had little luck. I also needed to manually apply the patch and worked through the errors until I got a security violation with the PTK. I was no longer in any way able to access any of my test portals using the management interface. I needed to back the patch out and get to plain 2.21a and PTK cvs to even get a ZODB portal working. With all the problems with the standard PTK way of handling users access, I think that the best long term solution is to fully make the leap into the use of LoginManager and Racks as the standard mechenism for the PTK. I also think that the standard authentication algorithm should support user login screens before basic auth for those folders that have a login_form in the aquisition path. So my vote is to check your patch into the main stream and harden it. Best, Chip Vanek chip@upcast.com

LM or PTK?
LM
(Waiting for Dan's changes before trying _any_ LM with PTK ;)
I posted the patch about two weeks ago, have you tried it? I just got back from vacation yesterday afternoon. It looks like Steve Alexander tried it and it worked OK (once he tracked down a bug in his manual patch application that took me about a day to find when I created the patch -- missing imports whose only references are wrapped in a try/except can be hard to find :-().
I plan to check this in later today, either directly or on a branch. Any preferences?
