Ok. I need to find a good replacement for GUF. We're up around 3000 users, and GUF is gagging pretty bad. I've been messing with exUserFolder, but untill there's better documentation on how to get it to authenticate from your own source, I'll have to look elsewhere (unless somebody out there knows of a good howto). I played with SimpleUserFolder, and it works, but doesn't have any method for form-based auth that I could figure out. I tried LoginManager, but every time I install it, my Zope server (2.6.2) crashes. I've burned almost 2 days on this and now they're putting some pressure on me to get this working. so ... is there: A) better documentation on one of the previously mentioned products so as to make it work correctly? B) some other product that can do this? I'm authenticating off of an Oracle Database with GUF, and I need that ability in whatever is used to replace it. TIA Rick

you can use the cookiecrumbler in addition to the simple user folder, which provides an form based login. http://hathaway.freezope.org/Software/CookieCrumbler Ciao, Jochen

Put "CookieCrumbler" before SUF. This is nowadays the standard way to combine form based login with UserFolders (as it is the modular approach -- combine orthogonal features rather than reimplement them directly as pairs over and over again). Dieter
