What would be an elegant way to add them all with a python script? A script to put in lib/python, supplying your own user_role_name and user_list: user_list = ?? user_role_name = ?? import Zope app = Zope.app() folder = app.acl_users for u in user_list: folder._doAddUser(u.name, u.password, (user_role_name,), ()) get_transaction().commit() See how that works? Those first two lines give you the actual database--not just a special view of it but a live connection. From there, you don't use some funny mechanism to get acl_users--it's actually a simple attribute of the root object. Then you modify acl_users however you want and commit the transaction. If any error occurs, the transaction will be aborted and changes made to the database will be forgotten. Beautiful, isn't it?

What would be an elegant way to add them all with a python script? An external Python method or an external automation based on ZClient (Howto on zope.org). For both approaches, you must know the parameters of "manage_addUser". If nowhere else, you will find them in the source: "AccessControl.User.UserFolder.manage_addUser".
