The acl_users folder object has a method: _addUser(self,name,password,confirm_pw,[roles],[domains],REQUEST=None) I'm pretty sure confirm_pw is the last required argument. Wherever your data comes from, iterate over it and call this method ~1300 times. Setting up 1300 user accounts is easy... it's the *administration* of that many accounts that'll get you. You may want to think about setting up tools to administer those accounts without having to open acl_users in the manage_edit interface. Getting anything done with that many objects in a folder can be a bit tedious. HTH, Dylan At 04:26 AM 10/19/2002 +0000, you wrote:
Hi I would like to set up a zope site for my school with user profiles and authentication (1200 high school students in my London based school). At the moment I have a php/mysql solution. How do I set up 1300 users (100 teacher accounts)? I don't fancy adding manually into acl_users?
