Hi Everyone,

I have progressed my application, it''s coming along nicely. I have just
installed acts_as_authenticated plug-in to set up basic login controls.

The thing is I want something that will also give me user/admin
controls, user groups etc... I need admin and users, currently
acts_as_authenticated only offers me users.

Also I need a plug-in that will help me manage users easily so I can
concentrate on the good bits of the app.

I looked in to this plug-in/gem: http://penso.info/auth_generator anyone
got any opinions on this. It looks rather beefy, and comes with some
interesting feature such as Gravatar support etc..but is it too much?

I am looking for suggestions for an authentication plugin that is kept
up to date and supports what I need and is extendable and future proof
(as much as possible) so as I develop my app I want the authentication
plugin to support development.

Can anyone suggest a rails plug-in/gem they use that has given them
great joy!

Thanks
