However in my app I have two places where people can login, one is for in my case "employees" the other is for "users". They are seperate tables in my database and have many different fields. I have an admin area located at ./sysadmin/ where only "employees" can login, they

We need an easy way to not keep breaking our app and each others development environs when we check in the code. The piece in question is the dispatch.fcgi. The path to ruby is (obviously) different in Windows and Unix. Has anyone run into

This is a little off topic but someone here knows, I''m sure... Does anyone have a good site to find freely available standard icons for things like add/edit/delete/save?

Hello all, I''m looking to setup a simple network "pasteboard" for files within my organization, to circumvent people trying to email 50 meg files and me being unwilling to open up our mail server for massive email transfers. I''ve seen the pasteboard idea elsewhere where you can go and paste code or log files or whatever, and then they just fall off an hour or a day

Hello, The problem I am having is I have a form where a user can edit their data that does not include their password. I have another form that I allow them to change their password. Both forms use the before_update method that hashes the password. There is no password in the first form. Am I making this too complicated? How do I call the hash_password for only the second form? Both forms use

Hello all, I am developing an online store and would like to keep track of how many times each product was viewed. While I can keep track of page hits using something like webalizer, this won''t really work (I don''t think) as the pages are not going to be static.

Hey, Would you guys recommend just coding your own authentication and ACL system, or is it best just to use one of acts_as_authenticated, LoginGenerator and alike.

What would you suggest.... and why? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML
