I have an application where I need to have a large number of users. I don't want to override Zope's existing user authentication mechanism, but I am trying to wrap it in my own code, to access additional information about a user. Here's what I want to do: Present user with login form. Pass username and password to Zope to authenticate. If authenticated, retrieve additional information related to that user.

Look for the PluggableAuthService or SimpleUserFolder, both may help you... Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
