RE: [Zope] Authentication with IIS

This question has been asked several times already, and the answer is always the same:

Q: How to to interface Zope with IIS A: turn off challenge/response authentication and turn on basic authentication for Zope to handle authentication

*BUT* I want IIS to handle authentication, and give Zope the user's name through REMOTE_USER. It seems not to be possible. Has anyone managed to do that?

I think you would need to write a user folder to do that.

Here, everyone who is logged on the NT Domain is already authenticated when they browse the intranet. But I don't know how to get this information from Zope.

Zope can authenticate using NT user accounts. See http://www.zope.org/Members/htrd/NTUserFolder
