Authentication methods

Hello,

I am looking for some help with user authentication. I need (if there
is something like this) tutorials with different ways, how to make
user authentication.

Users->roles->rights

user - n* roles - n* rights

Or something about ACL O_o

Uff thx for help

Hi,
youlooking for a ready-to-go solution (if such a thing exists).

I am looking for some tutorial or guide, i can make whole scripts with
data saved in databases, but i need some help with how to find out if
some user have rights to do something :), or which way to use to store
users rights.

Example:

User: Andy
Role: amdin
Rights: news_read, news_edit, news_delete, users etc...

User: Jack
Role: news_editor, user_editor
Rights: news_read, news_edit, user_read, user_edit

I find something about ACL and using bitwise technique :DD
Yeah, i hope i will learn something from it :)

Thx

User rights have nothing to the user authentification.
And roles is the rights applied to the users.
So Your post is wrong in many ways.

ACL is stands for Access Control List (pretty self-explanatory, it is list
binding users to the rights, thus defining user roles)

User rights have nothing to the user authentification.
Yeah, i know, i mean authorization. :)
Roles are groups of rights applied to the users.
