auth.settings.login_methods=[ ...., auth ] can be a list of login methods. They will be checked in order. one of them ca be auth and it will check against the auth_user. > ii) How to run a email sending service in background of application > which sends email given a particular date and time (say 12 Dec 2009 > etc.) You can call a controller or crypt periodically and that can check and send emails.

Use cron and from cron call db.export_to_csv_file(open('backupfile','wb')) It will backup everything in database in a db independent way. If you use postgres you can consider using pg_dump as well. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
