As far as I've been able to discover, the sunRise solution (in 2.0.3)What is stopping you from using the authentication as provided?
doesn't supply a mechanism for restricting resources by user role.
All that it does is check that the user has successfully logged in.
I need a way to control which resources are available to certain users
based on their role.
My idea was to use an action to do this check, like the auth-protect except
that this action would set some parameters indicating which resource the
pipeline should use.
I'm new to cocoon and the way things are done under it so I'm very open to any
and suggestions.

Oh and if someone knows of a better (and easier) way of doing
authorisation in 2.0.3 I'm keen on hearing about it, eventhough I want
to try my action method first.

Perhaps you could detail what is missing from the provided solution?

Subject: Authorisation in Cocoon 2.0.3
Hi All,
I'm trying to write my own action to handle user authorisation. I'm
using sunRise for user authentication and need a way to get at the <ID>
and <role> values for the current session from within an action (a Java
class). I know I need a reference to the sunRise context, but don't
know how to get it. Once I have that reference, how do I use it? Can
someone point me in the right direction?
Oh and if someone knows of a better (and easier) way of doing
authorisation in 2.0.3 I'm keen on hearing about it, eventhough I want
to try my action method first.
Thanks in advance,
Damian.
