Hello,
looks like your posts come through
Auth is used successfully by many installations.
Your way of telling "it does not work" helps nobody starting by yourself.
Yes, that's blindness as you say :)
Did you look in the delivered pear/doc/Auth or pear/test/Auth ?
I was happy with
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/packa...cation.auth.php myself ...
Regards.
