If you're storing plain text passwords in postgres you'll need to alter the cryptPassword function. Changing this: def cryptPassword(self, username, password): salt =username[:2] secret = crypt(password, salt) return secret to this: def cryptPassword(self, username, password): salt =username[:2] # secret = crypt(password, salt) secret = password return secret in pgAuthSource.py should get things working ;-) Adam At 10:56 AM 5/21/2002 -0700, L.

I am a zope security newbie. I want to limit access to several folders in my website using a postgres table and the extensible User Folder (XUF) product. I've successfully installed XUF. What should the security tab look like on the folders I want to limit access to? I've turned off acquire View permissions and checked View for the Authenticated column. This causes the loginForm of XUF to appear, but typing in a valid username and password doesn't seemt to log me in.
Is this problem related to my security tab or does it have something to do with the non-encrypted storage of the passwords in my postgres table (I was using UserDB and a much older version of zope before).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance, Liz
