there is a blog about it http://www.realityforge.org/articles/2005/11/12/aaa_in_rails There are so many Authentication/Authorization/Auditing generators now, just like the situation in java''s world, Too many components doing the samething just make me confusion.

...r posting from last month - but I stumbled across the EXACT same error today, and figured out a way around it. The difficulty stems from you running under Windows XP, probably running InstantRails, right? I fairly quickly discovered that the reason things were not working according to the ActiveRBAC Manual was that the code for ActiveRBAC assumes that you are running under a LINUX system - or at least your file system follows the LINUX convention of /dir/some_other_dir/something_else/foo/bar... The offending code (at least so far for me) is a routine named realpath in the file InstantRail...

All, I''m trying Active_rbac for the first time. I have the basics working so I can protect a single controller. I want to protect all of my controllers so users have to login to see anything. I''m trying to put a before_filter in my application controller, but I don''t know how to do the except correctly. I''ve been trying this: class ApplicationController

*Sorry for the first mail without subject* Hello, I try to use the active_rbac plugin (0.3.1) with Rails 1.1.2 but can''t succeed for the moment. Here is what I did : 1 - install Engines Plugin => OK. ''rake engines:info'' gives me "1.1.1" as the engines plugin version. 2 - install Active_rbac plugin => OK. Files are copied in vendor/plugins/active_rbac

Hi All, I am making a DAM (seems to be the hip thing to do these days). It is for the company that I work for. We have some really weird domain rules that have prevented me from just using a simple directory structure file permission system. I have come up with a solution but I wanted to run it by you gurus to ensure that I am not recompiling the wheel here. Basically the domain rule is: A user

Hi, I just finished writing this plug-in. I''ve been using rails for awhile but this is my first time extracting some code and writing it as a plug-in and I''d love to hear to some feedback.

Just a heads-up that 1.1.4 breaks engines that are customised. login/user_engine are probably almost as widely deployed as Typo, and if you''ve done any controller-level customisation, 1.1.4 appears to

Hi. I have an app where "users" can belong in "groups" with certain "roles" (eg. a user can own a group). Normally I''d make users has_and_belongs_to_many groups and put a role_id on the join table. But - a role is really a first class citizen also, so a model is in order. The problem with making a "role" model which has_many "users"

I''ve recently started playing with InstantRails 1.0 and am now wanting to experiment with the Login and active RBAC engines but having trouble getting them to install. I''ve checked the following but can''t find any info on how to get it to work. http://rails-engines.org/wiki/pages/Engines+plugin I''ve also tried the following:

I am a the point now where I have to add user authentification to my application. Anyone can point me toward an easy to use / secure library? I know about ActiveRBAC and was wondering if there is anything else that I should consider. Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I upgraded to 1.1.3. Now, ActiveRBAC quit working. Is there an easy way to downgrade / revert to Rails 1.1.2.
