[Zope] login with a login page [Q]

[Jim Sanford]

The recently released GenericUserFolder should be ableto do what you need.
It allows calling a dtml method for authentication and such. That dtml
method could call as many ZSQL methods as are needed to accomplish your
objective.  (Being paranoid I keep my passwords encrypted in a separate
table)
