However, how does one configure Zope (as a client to the ZEO server) to use this authentication?  I see nothing in the Zope config file.  Somehow Zope must be able to pass a valid userid and password in the authentication database to ZEO.

The best place to ask these questions is the zodb-dev at zope.org mailing 
list...
