I am trying to use exUserFolder to auth against a passwd style file. Are there any docs for this? Perhaps I am missing something here but I can't find any docs on how to install it or use it. The Zope Book assumes you are creating Products not installing them. I finally figured out that I needed to just untar the file into the right directory and restart. So now I "Add" an exUserFolder, but I don't know how to answer the questions asked. I tried a bunch of different combinations until I got it to create a folder, but now when I try to open the folder it can't seem to find the file. If I had put in a full path name to a file, it tells me it needs to be "simple". If I just put in the file name, where am I supposed to put the file? Is there some general "How to install and use products" kind of docs? Perhaps it is out there (on www.zope.org?) and I am just missing it. I have looked at several Products and they all were skimpy on details so I figure there must just be something generic that I should know. -- Gary Algier, WB2FWZ gary.algier@ulticom.com +1 856 787 2758 Ulticom Inc., 1020 Briggs Rd, Mt.

Well there are, they are conveniently not in exUserFolder though :-) The file based authentication method, is a direct port of etcUserFolder, and comes with all of its quirks. It is mainly there for people migrating from etcUserFolder. Basically you need to create a directory called exusers in the top level of your Zope install (on your filesystem). Inside this you can have any number of files (for different user folders). | Is there some general "How to install and use products" kind of docs? | Perhaps it is out there (on www.zope.org?) and I am just missing it. | I have looked at several Products and they all were skimpy on details | so I figure there must just be something generic that I should know. Yes we need docs for exuserfolder, especially for some of the more esoteric auth sources. -- Totally Holistic Enterprises Internet| | Andrew Milton The Internet (Aust) Pty Ltd | | ACN: 082 081 472 ABN: 83 082 081 472 | M:+61 416 022 411 | Carpe Daemon PO Box 837 Indooroopilly QLD 4068 |akm@theinternet.com.au|

I have just released the Unenlightened Zopistas Guide to exUserFolder, it's available at; http://www.zope.org/Members/TheJester/exUserFolder/UnenlightenedZopistasGuid... Covers installation, and the major auth sources. It's version 0.0 so it might be a bit rough. -- Totally Holistic Enterprises Internet| | Andrew Milton The Internet (Aust) Pty Ltd | | ACN: 082 081 472 ABN: 83 082 081 472 | M:+61 416 022 411 | Carpe Daemon PO Box 837 Indooroopilly QLD 4068 |akm@theinternet.com.au|
