I just wrote one. I have to say authentication with a user bean in the session scope makes many things easier - passing a neat parcel of data about the user from hither to thither is a cinch and I always have available a lot of the regularly used details about the user - the name, how many times they've logged in, when they were last logged in etc. . great stuff.
And doing the authentication proved to be pretty much simpler too. Pass the username/password over to the UserAccess.cfc and get back a validated userbean. Brilliant. However it's not ready for prime time - there are still too many of my own coding quirks and a few "i'll fix that later on, just comment it out for now" parts of the UserAccess.cfc so I'm not quite ready to share it. But when i've had a chance to clean it up and fix the things that need fixing, add the validation where it's lacking at the moment, I'll gladly share with you. I like it!
