I'm currently looking into the possibility of replacing our own home-made content management system with Zope/Plone. We have a mysql database we will want to continue to use. I have installed exUserFolder, to be able to use user information stored in this database for authentication. Now that's almost working, the only thing is that exUserFolder is expecting passwords to be encrypted; which they are not. Is there a way of telling exUserFolder that it should work with non-encrypted passwords?

My reading above (from a few simple searches) suggests that XUF should allow you to choose your password hash somehow. You can probably set it to "plain" or something, or provide a "hash" method that hashes a string to itself. You'll have to check the doco or code to see exactly where. --jcc -- "He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster.
