Hi,

Talking of authentication, is there a way to disallow midgard users from
using nadmin?

I use midgard/nadmin as the admin interface of a portal, with 3-5
admins, which are midgard users.

Besides this, I have thousands of users of the site, which I don't
want to store in midgard database. (I still don't have a feel how
midgard handles thousands of users, or hundreds of thousands of
articles...) I want to authenticate these users to reach various parts
of my site based on the users' groups/categories/whatever. So I need a
method to mark my pages (included all subpages) that these pages can
be reached only as a user group 'A' etc...

Also, I want logined user -dependent content, but this is much more
easier to re-implement than authentication...
