A client of mine wants a site that is only accessible for members.
However, there are more than 25000 members. Are there any reasons that
would make it unwise to populate an ordinary acl_users folder with
such a number of user accounts?
If so, what other options do I have?
If it's possible to use a existing userdatabase or authentication source
I would prefer to use that. With
http://www.zope.org/Products/PluggableAuthService/ it's very easy to let
zope authenticate against any kind of database or source (including
MySQL/LDAP etc). And if it's a custom source it's not difficult to write
your own authentication plugin.
Where and how are these accounts stored now? LDAD/ADS or something else?
