Also, how does Zope keep track of the users currently logged in?
The illusion of "being logged in" is just an effect of your browser remembering username and password and sending them again without further bothering you to re-enter them.
I was just about to say: Then what does the "logout" do in the ZMI? But then I thought "let's see what the logout option does in the zmi", so I viewed the source, then searched the zope /lib/python directory and in ZOPE_DIR/lib/python/App/Management.py, I found the definition of manage_zmi_logout. Basically, to log someone out, it sends an http error 401 in the response. Felix.
