I was actually thinking that in my custom login.cfm file I could first check the web service for a valid user account, if its found, I could insert or update the records in my existing sql server user directory using the information returned by the web service, then let farcry log the user in as it does now. This way I can use all the same UD code, I don't have to modify core, or the webtop, and it will still integrate w/ the web service.
I wish I could upgrade to 5, but we have a number of sites all sharing the same core, and no time to upgrade them all at once (and work out the UD changes, verity changes, etc) Thanks Blair.
