Right you didn't ask about logging them in :-) You asked about checking the role :-) You can't directly access the password in the user object from a python script because it's protected (by virtue of being named '__', and the getPassword method is named '_getPassword') Logging them in from a form, without using a user folder product that caters to that, or a PAS plugin, or using the Cookie Crumbler product, is a little difficult to do and is probably not worth the effort given the number of people who have already solved this problem for you. Since you're new, I would look into PAS (Pluggable Auth Source) plugins since it seems you want to do your own authentication. -- Andrew Milton a...@theinternet.com.au _______________________________________________ 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 )
