Sessions are independent of authentication. Authentication frameworks obviously use the session to keep track of the currently authenticated user, but that should be the extent of their interaction, AFAIK. Sessions are created where there is user login or not. Calling session[:some_key] will create a session if one does not already exist. I don't use AuthLogic myself, so if it is having issues with the session store then I can't really help you. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
