Dieter Plaetinck has created a really well thought-out user authentication system, dAuth for cakephp.

Php security can be a tricky beast, and web programmers can never learn enough about it. Dieter has evolved this project in bakery articles and it’s very useful to go through and read them all. Once you have and you understand how they work it’d be nice to be able to download all the code examples at once so that you can play with them easily in your cake project/favorite editor.

Well I’ve compiled all the code taken directly from his posted examples and put them in a tarball here.

Enjoy, but remember, it’s a bad idea to just copy/paste code from anywhere and use it in a production system. I suggest using this code as a template or learning example, before writing your own modified authentication code.

Mad Props Dieter,

Ian
