[Zope] Obtaining the User's Name from a Python Script in Zope

21 Jul 2003

      I have used the getUserName() function in page templates and passed that
name as a parameter to python scripts in Zope.  But, now I need to
independently verify the authenticated user from a script, not relying
on anything passed in from a page.  Is it possible to do so, and if so,
how?  The basic need is to obtain the logged in user's name from a
script directly from Zope from within a python script.  

If this should be posted to another list, please let me know.
