-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello everyone, I don't know if it's documented, but I had a problem with CMF dealing with the same username on different cmf portal sites that were on the same server. IOW, I could click on the "Join" link, as user "Rusty" for CMFsite1, and be added; but if I try to join as user "Rusty" on CMFsite2, then I get an error. This is bad. Should I file a bug report on this? And is there a work around?

What error? traceback, type and value please...

Maybe you should ask on the right list ;-) zope-cmf@zope.org cheers, Chris

All good points! I just wanted a quick answer, since I'm playing around with the CMF, and not on the zope-cmf mailing list..oddly, it must have been some kind of a cookie problem, because I closed everything out the next morning, and started fresh...voila! It worked just fine.... So...thanks for the help! I'll ask in the appropriate place next time. Russell
cheers,
Chris

I don't know offhand whether CMF uses a common user store (db) between sites, or perhaps it is storing the site context with the user record so that user1 on site1 isn't automatically a user on site2. If it's doing that, then the code would have to be tweaked to ignore which site the user is authenticating for. That would be a Bad Thing. Otherwise it sounds like storing users externally in a common store (LDAP?) for all the sites would be the solution to your particular case. I don't develop nor run CMF so I hope this isn't (yet more) bad advice from a newbie. -Patrick Price Russell Hires wrote:

Apparently, they use the same "acl_users" object.
When you create a new CMF site, you are asked whether the new site should create a new "acl_users" or use an existing one. Dieter
