It seems like ZServer/medusa/http_server.py is responsible for logging requests to the access log/Z2.log and it only extracts the user from the HTTP basic auth header.
I'd like to have the Z2.log reflect my PAS users so I started a branch at http://svn.zope.org/PluggableAuthService/branches/rossp-access-log/ that hacks some request data. You can see the meat of it in the following changeset:

I'm sure this is just about the worst way to do this. :) I just wanted to get the discussion started.
I suspect that ZServer/medusa/http_server.py is only invoved for certain Zope setups and that other Zope setups (twisted, etc.?) might log differently.
So what would be a better way to approach this? Does anyone else have a solution to this problem?
I forgot to mention that one of my goals is to have this behavior be PAS pluggable. In particular, it seems obvious that user.getUserName() should be the default that's used, but I have a need to use something else, so I'd like to be able to write a plugin that does this.
I suspect that instead of doing yet another PAS plugin it would be more useful to make the zserver logging modular. Wichert. -- Wichert Akkerman <wichert@wiggy.net> It is simple to make things. http://www.wiggy.net/ It is hard to make things simple.
