Description : Extensible User Folder -- user authentication, properties and sessions
exUserFolder (sometimes called XUF) is an extensible authentication
product for the Zope Application Server. It allows you to choose from
a number of methods of authenticating your zope application users, and
allows the setting and fetching of arbitrary properties on User
objects.
.
Authentication methods and Property methods do not have to use the
same backing store, so it is possible to use legacy user sources, and
still have configuration information stored about a user.
.
exUserFolder supports HTTP Basic Authentication and the so-called
Cookie Authentication schemes popular with most webservers.
.
exUserFolder can also be used for user session tracking, relying on
its user credential cache with a reasonably long expiry length.
