Hi
I am trying to make head and tail of a critical problem I am facing. I have my
railsapp which has its own user table and account management.
Along with that, I am installing Opinion forum as a subdomain on the server. As
you know, Opinion has its own user table and account management. I want the user
to login once and access domains and subdomains without having to login again.
>From an earlier post to his forum, I got the solution for having a domain
wide cookie. So one part of the problem is solved.
There are some options I am looking at:
1. When a new user signs up on the main railsapp, I need to insert a record (a
kind of replication) in the opiniondb as well to keep the user account working.
Is it possible to insert a record in another db?
2. Short circuit the User model of opinion to authenticate users from
railsapp''s db user_table instead of opiniondb''s user_table.
(maybe Any opinion experts can help me there?)
3. Any other ides for a Shared User model?
Awaiting expert suggestions and solutions
Thanks
Rajesh
