Go for UserDB. It will do exactly what you need and is 
stable.  :)

Un-maintained doesn't necessarilly mean "defunct and 
broken"... most times in the open source community, it 
means "feature complete and stable".  Basically, no one has 
felt the need to add features and there are no serious bugs 
(if there were, I'm sure someone would step up and fix it).

(On the features front... I'm not saying UserDB is the end 
all be all of a User Folder product, check out 
http://www.zope.org/Members/Zen/GenericUserFolder/. :)

Subject: [Zope] login with a login page [Q]


Hello.

    Even if the subject may seem funny, it's a real 
question... :-)

    I am trying to develop a login page to a site we are 
developing. I don't want to be prompted with a pop-up 
window, I just want to user to view a form and write there 
the user and password and press "Login" as in the Member
login page from the Zope.Org site. Does anyone can give me 
a hint on how to do that? Our user data will be stored in 
an RDBM database (Oracle8i). I saw the UserDB product. But 
apparently it's no longer maintained. The functionality is 
to bring areas for members and areas for anonymous users.

    Thanks in advance.
