I've managed to get loginManager to install, but I am very confused as =
to what to do with it.

I've read the how-tos on zope.org, and the documentation of LoginManager =
itself...  But I still don't understand what is supposed to happen.

A User Source is a location to find users, Say, my SQL database, right?

How do I tell it to use the SQL methods I have for retrieveing =
passwords?

The how-tos say to create dtml-methods called "userAuthenticate" =
"userExists" and "userRoles".  Where do these go? =20

Can anyone help me see the light on this?

Thank you
