I'm interested in this also. We use UBB for forums and I think it uses crypt to handle the password stuff. I want access to those users and their info inside Zope. Mainly for authentication. Ideas?

Hi all, I'm storing users in Mysql, and doing custom authentication on them. I want to know if Zope has access to the crypt function, or if there is something equivalent that is preferred. Thanks.

No, there isn't AFAIK, I use an external method for that purpose. But since you're using MYSQL, it has various built-in functions which might fit you purposes.
