two independent Django sites, one user - share User objects

[Markus Gattol]

Say I have n (e.g. three) independent Django sites and one user. Rather than having n times a password/username I'd like to share this across all n sites. Also a users profile [0] and so forth. Now assume I don't want to use OpenID, how would I be able to have User objects in sync across n Django sites? Maybe using ZeroMQ and have each Django site listen to some actions on other Django sites and then replay whatever action takes place on all Django sites?

You could pick one site to be your canonical site, and add it as a second db to the first, and then use a custom authentication backend to auth against that site, then create a local user with the same password hash.
