I remember having quite a wrestle with all that a few months ago. i
honestly don't remember all the details, but web2pyslices does:
http://web2pyslices.com/main/slices/take_slice/77
note that others have come up with other, potentially better, mutli-
login solutions since then - including the one that uses janrain and i
think is bundled with web2py. moral is that it is possible to support
both traditional auth and other login methods side by side. to see my
example running live check out www.tenthrow.com
