Hallo, I'got a fundamental question: Why should you switch from the built-in authentication mechanism to a product like GUF or Login-manager?? Except of the different login interface, I dosn't see any advantage?? Please correct me. What I'm looking for is a product that redirects the authenticated-user to the part of the website where he has got his "home-folder" and also nice wolud be a search-function which gives an administrator a list of all the users with all the roles in the system. -- Sent through GMX FreeMail - http://www.gmx.net

When you want to do something that the built in user folder can't, like authenticate against usernames and passwords stored in an SQL table, or and LDAP server, or if you want cookie-based authentication...

why not just use and index_html DTML Method as follows: <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('/Members/'+AUTHENTICATED_USER)"> ...for example?
and also nice wolud be a search-function which gives an administrator a list of all the users with all the roles in the system.
That's not going to be pretty, as that's an _awful_ lot of data ;-) HTH, Chris

membership can be set up to do this :^) Can you say ZCatalog? I knew you could! :^)

Hmmm... surely that can get quite hairy what with local roles and users with the same name being defined in different acl_users, acquired users (OT: does LoginManager support this?) What about Proxy roles? I must be missing something simple :-S cheers, Chris
