i'm using userdb on 2.2.0 and it has been smooth sailing. setup is easy.
but there are several drawbacks:
-password is not encrypted.
-it's not maintained - probably means that it's stable. until a new version
of zope changes this, of course.
i've tried GUF, but decided to stick with UserDB until i really have to
change. login manager, i havenot tried yet
note: userdb are not installed on a fresh zope2.2.0, but upgraded from
2.1.6. but i do remember installing on a fresh zope2.2.0 and encountered no
problems.
