Yeah, I have the same situation..
My thought was just to add my accesscontrol.php include that I use for my 'members only' portal (which requires login for access) to the index.php of my zencart shop, which appears to work, but doesn't, for some reason. Maybe there is a proper place to stick such a script-include in the zen cart code?
My approach used php sessions to check for login, if not, access denied, please apply for credentials. If anyone knows how to get that to work, thenwe have a solution. (my assumption is that they are already logged in as a member in order to view the zen shop, no direct URL access is allowed).
Here is my (it's not mine, it came from Sitepoint's Kevin Yank) login code (it would be so nice to somehow marry this with the (superior) zencart user login module.
<?php // accesscontrol.php
session_start();
include_once 'error-handler.php';
include_once 'db_connect.php';
$uid = isset($_POST['uid']) ? $_POST['uid'] : $_SESSION['uid'];
$pwd = isset($_POST['pwd']) ? $_POST['pwd'] : $_SESSION['pwd'];
$usertype = isset($_POST['usertype']) ? $_POST['usertype'] : $_SESSION['usertype'];
if(!isset($uid)) {
?>

If you make this into a .php file and include it in your index.php file of your zencart, you can see that it almost works.
For what it 's worth...Maybe someone knows why it doesn't? I think it's at least a solution (might not be the best one).
