Following the Zope 2.5 plan, I have just added to CVS the capability for user passwords to be encrypted in the standard user folder. Please try it out. If it works correctly there should be no outwardly visible differences. I'm also soliciting the assistance of developers and users of custom user folders (like LDAPUserFolder, LoginManager, GUF, etcUserFolder, NTUserFolder, etc.) We need you to test whether the added feature has any bad effects on your user folder. It's much easier to apply a fix now than it will be after a release. Shane P.S. I may have inadvertently sent this twice, please excuse. :-)
