I need to provide a logon screen more informative than the default
dialog box. Can I do it with UserDB (I have tried, and have not found
any information about it).

I have tried it and have to figure out by myself the table and column
names and types. I have created one Gadfly connection (only for testing
purposed), and created the tabel users, as bellow:

create table users (
	username	varchar,
	password	varchar,
	domains		varchar,
	roles		varchar
)

I suppose it is correct, but I'm not sure (it worked).

I have tried the GUF Walktrough and it doesn't works for me (the very
last part, trying to logon as 'fred', doesn't work). I'm using SiteRoot,
Apache proxying a zserver, and a Squid cache. All in the same machine...

TIA
