Hi all,

I'm currently in the process of testing cakephp for some web
application. I was wondering something about authentication. cakePHP
follows a model where there is 1 general database user and stores the
usernames and information in a separate user table and performs
authentication against this table. When writing (PHP) web
applications, I got used to authenticating directly to the database to
provide greater security and also to provide security when logging in
on the database with for example an MS access front-end.

Is it feasible to write a cake plugin to perform this authentication
and ACL checking on a database level?

Thanks in advance for you comments.
