OK, I have only found several posts asking, and many answers that don't seem to 
really 
address the issue.


How is user authentication and session management handled best in Flex?   
Taking into 
consideration the following:

* All business logic is server side and available only to an authenticated user 
 (and only the 
components they have access to).
* Cannot reverse engineer the flash file to gain access to the server side.
* Each server side call must be authenticated.
* Preferably the main application is not downloaded until the user is 
authenticated.

I saw suggestions on authenticating the user and then storing the roles on the 
client, this 
seems very insecure, as the user could potentially write their own app and 
stick roles in 
that client side variable.

I got the few books on Flex that are out there, but none of them really cover 
this critical 
issue.  Maybe I'm missing something basic?

Thanks
JK
