Is there are lighter weight package that handles the basics for small, internal web apps? Salt and Sugar seem like overkill for my projects. I need for a designated administrator to be able to add local users (who are employees). I then need for them to be able to log in and get to pages based upon their identity. I don''t need for them to be able to log in in Chinese, get emails if they forgot their password, register via the web, or be verified before they can log in. AWDWR shows how to roll my own, but I would prefer to go with a commonly used rails package if there is one. Salt and Sugar, capable as I''m sure they are, clutter up my app more than I like.

Thanks again, Kate. This is exactly what I was looking for. Already installed, configured, and working. And it *is* lighter weight and less intrusive. I''ve written and rewritten this same application in php, mod_python, TurboGears 0.8, TurboGears 0.9, and now Rails. And I must say, none of the others can hold a candle to Rails. It''s been a joy. The documentation is great. And when I need extended functionality, I''ve been able to simply ask for a recommendation and whatever I need just magically appears. :-) -Steve -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
