[Twisted-Python] Any examples of an authenticating XMLRPC server?

I'd like to add a number of XMLRPC services to an existing Nevow site
that's both SSL encrypted and Guarded. However, when I take the
straightforward tack of adding an XMLRPC instance to my site as /RPC ,
the client is unable to connect. It appears as though the client
(Python's xmlrpclib) can't negotiate a login with the Nevow guard.
Reading Andre Dalke's post (and the subsequent replies):
http://twistedmatrix.com/pipermail/twisted-python/2003-June/004447.html
it seems as though a rewrite of cred about a year and a half ago should
have made it possible to use cred for doing the authentication required
for both form-based and HTTP-AUTH-based queries (such as xmlrpclib
uses). However, I'm not sure how all of that would interact with the
Guard mechanisms (e.g. creating sessions, redirecting between forms, and
the like).
Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone has any code that does this, or
information about the current state-of-the-art.
Enjoy yourselves,
Mike
