Some information about this package: Package: zope-guf Priority: extra Section: web Installed-Size: 73 Maintainer: Mike Goldman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: i386 Version: 1.1.0-1 Depends: zope Filename: pool/main/z/zope-guf/zope-guf_1.1.0-1_i386.deb Size: 18200 MD5sum: 269051565499f371b8ead093702c9104 Description: Roll-your-own user folder for Zope The GenericUserFolder is a roll-your-own user folder. It provides hooks for you to list users, authenticate a user, list a user's roles etc. It supports cookie based authentication to allow you to create a nifty login screen to your site. It provides an alternative when existing Zope user authentication methods need to be mixed and matched, or aren't configurable enough, or don't quite do what you want. If you need to write your own authentication mechanism or query inhouse datasources, it will be much easier writing code to plug into GUF rather than writing a acl_users folder implementation and associated baggage from scratch. -- Martin Michlmayr [EMAIL PROTECTED]
