[Zope] Re: [Zope-dev] user folder question

My question is not how to authenticate against ldap, but I was wondering if there is a way to disable the default user folder and in automagically put an ldapuser folder in its place on creation of a new instance. I'm kinda new to zope, and I'm sure it's possible, but if someone could at least point me in the right direction i would appreciate it. If you're talking about instance as in installing a Zope $INSTANCE_HOME, then you could prepare a ZODB where you have done all that manually and re-use that for every instance you build out. If you run ZEO and they all connect to the same database there is no need - you switch it out once and all instances see that. jens ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

If you do replace the top user folder with one that depends on an outside source, you better learn how to use the Emergency User. Because you will at some point mis-configure the LDAPUserFolder and lock yourself out. --jcc -- Building Websites with Plone http://plonebook.packtpub.com/ Enfold Systems, LLC http://www.enfoldsystems.com ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
