Hi Marcelo, I don't use othAuth, it's more of an all in one solution to authentication, authorisation and acces control. I find Dauth to be interesting, as it's more of a pure authentication system. If I understand it correctly you would just include it in your users controller, as that's the one that would handle the logins etc.. The ACL download is just a means of administering aro, aco and aros_aco objects, i.e. your "who can access what" rules. If you have a means of logging in (authentication) and saving your member data to the session, the AC (access control) component which is part of the download may already do what you are looking for - just move it to your app components folder and declare it in yoru app controller. That stated: I think othAuth simply expects acos to be named "controller:action" which you can do with the admin plugin by switching to lite mode (by default it expects acos to be named "section:controller:action"). Looking at the othAuth component code I'm not sure that will work though, as it appears there are some methods missing. HTH, AD7six Please note: The manual/bakery is a good place to start any quest for info. The cake search (at the time of writing) erroneously reports less/no results for the google group. The wiki may contain incorrect info - read at your own risk (it's mainly user submitted) :) You may get your answer quicker by asking on the IRC Channel (you can access it with just a browser here:http://irc.cakephp.org). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
