The web site that I'm working on is going to have an area which is only available to users who have registered with the site. Registration will require filling out some simple information and this information will be checked against a master database of allowed users. When a user connects to the site, only certain information will be visible until they login. What sort of tools and techniques can I use with Zope to help simplify this task? For example, how does Zope.org manage it's user base? Are there particular samples/products I should be looking at? Any tips or pointers on this subject would be appreciated. Thanks James W.

This is something that is being dealt with right now on the PTK list. You may want to go take a look at the PTK archive for the past few days. Philip Eby & Ty Sarna are working on a new pluggable LoginManager that I'm sure is precisely what you'll want... Kevin
