[Zope] Single Sign-on using Zope

[Dilley, Hara]

Hi
 
We have a set of Zope applications that handle their own authentication using Zope.  We also have a number of web applications using Java and Python CGI scripts and we would like to have users that have been authenticated through Zope to be able to access them without having to log in again.
 
So the question is, can Zope set cookies as part of its authentication mechanism? And what are the strings in these cookies.
 
There is also the reverse question:  If a user gets authenticated through another application and has cookies set on his/her browser, how we can we use these "3rd party" cookies to authenticate a user in a Zope application?
 
Many Thanks
