I'm using TurboGears 0.8a4 and I'd like to know what is the best way to deploy user authentication and authorization to access specific parts of the website with this version. I'd like to avoid upgrading to 0.9 to use the Identity code, but if it's the best way, I can do that as well.
What I need is some mean to authenticate against my database -- either the system tables or with custom tables, it would be better against custom tables, but I can live with the user knowing the password to access the database itself -- and besides having the auth token (containing at least the username), I need having him associated with some group of users. Any suggestions? -- Jorge Godoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
