As long as you do not need access control based on the auth component, it's very simple. A good tutorial which is still valid for 1.2 alpha is here: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/views/opensource/libraryview.jsp?search_by=cook+web+sites+CakePHP > Release: 1.2.0.5146alpha > > I'm converting a large site to cake and wish to make use of the auth > component.

You have to differentiate between authentication and access control. I guess access control is what you are looking for, and that's where ACL comes into play. In 1.2 alpha, ACL is still subject to change, and it's not for the faint at heart to use it as of today. ACL implementation has changed a lot from 1.1 to 1.2 and to figure it out you're pretty much left to your own devices. My advise is, wait for 1.2 final. > I haven't succeeded to login, allow or deny controllers/actions yet so > any help in doing just that with authcomponent would already be great. See above tutorial for getting auth to work in 1.2 Regards --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
