Hello,

When I do basic authentication to a web2py app from a *desktop* app (tried
two test apps I wrote in Python and REALbasic) I can get the user's first
name and last name from the web app, but I can't get his/her id.

@service.xmlrpc
@service.jsonrpc
def getUserName():
    return str(auth.user_id) + " " + auth.user.first_name + " " +
auth.user.last_name

The above function returns "None" for the user id and the correct first name
and last name.

The same function called from a *web based* user interface (written with
qooxdoo and authenticated via the standard login form) works fine returning
both the user id and his first and last names.

What am I doing wrong?

I'm on web2py 1.89.5

Thanks.
