[Zope] How do I authenticate through pcgi and win2000 ????

[Max M]

I just wondered if there is an "AUTHENTICATED_USER.authenticate(userName,
password)" that I could call from a form. And then bypass all that IIS mumbo
jumbo completely.

Guess I will have to dig the sources.

You either access Zope for management purposes on 8080
or you learn how to convince IIS to forward authentication
information. Maybe "doc/WEBSERVER.txt" says something about this
issue.
