Wichert Akkerman's tutorial from
Plone Conference 2006.
Plone 2.5 switched to a new authentication system: GRUF has been replaced with the Pluggable Authentication System (PAS). PAS is a highly modular system, making it possible to support (combinations of) all kinds of different authentication and membership management systems.
This tutorial explains the interfaces PAS offers to implementers and users and demonstrates them by implementing a number of different PAS plugins.
This talk was originally presented at
