Take a look at the UserDB sample application for more details.

The UserDB sample stores and retrieves user information from a relational database. Thus, it provides an example of how to extend Zope to get user information from an external source. Where does one get hold of "UserDB"? I looked under "Contributed Software", but couldn't see anything obvious. Which brings me to a suggestion - a "Search" tab at the Zope site to search for documents/modules available at www.zope.org - reasonable? (Note: the eGroups search facility has never worked for me, it is either unavailable, or, as now, displays: Sorry, an error occured while searching. ((for "UserDB" of course :-)))
