Thanks for the link Derek. I don't think it quite does what I want.
I guess I should have been more specific. I want to change how the Users object is displayed in the Django admin. This is a one line change in the Django code, but I would rather not change Django if I can avoid it. Is there a way to do something like subclassing the Django Users object and use that for authentication instead of the original Users object?
