I think you need to set the user like so ->
# name = the user login name.
request.environ['paste.auth_tkt.set_user'](name)
Here's the documentation for that...
``environ['paste.auth_tkt.set_user'](userid, tokens='',
user_data='')``
This sets a cookie that logs the user in. ``tokens`` is a
string (comma-separated groups) or a list of strings.
``user_data`` is a string for your own use.
FWIW, I found this a bit confusing too...
