How can I authenticate a user from a form. Pretty much exactly how zope.org logges you in?
I have looked at both zope.org's login and logged_in (the action for login) and don't see where it actually goes and checks the username/password? This check is performed in "UserFolder.validate" called from "ZPublisher.BaseRequest.traverse".
Apparently, zope.org supports cookie based authentication. This means, it does not use the standard Zope UserFolder but another one supporting this type of authentication. Dieter
