You first have to add a PAU (from the Add list of the ZMI). The PAU does nothing 
but relaying to an auth plugin. So choose the auth plugin you want to use (you 
can authenticate in several ways, and even mix differents methods, and have 
different authentications at different levels of the ZODB. You can try with the 
principalfolder)
Then you have to register both the pau and the plugin (one click in the zmi), 
enable the principal folder you've added, then go to the principal and add a 
Principal Information (ie a user). Now you can authenticate with the new user.
