[Zope-CMF] exUserFolder with CMF?

[Forest Zachman]

Ok, on further experimenting I got it to work...sort of..  It seems that
there is something wrong with the password mechanism.  The supplied password
that's initially generated is not correct.  If you use the management
interface to change the password, the user can then log in...at which point
he's prompted to change his password..well, that password doesn't get
set...it's still your old one...odd.
