First off, if you're new to ZF, don't use the controller classes in
core, use those in the incubator, as they are the next generation and
will be moved to core in the next release.

Simon Mundy gave a great example of how to integrate authentication with
the MVC components recently. Basically, you want to do the following:
* Create a Plugin class extending Zend_Controller_Plugin_Abstract,
and specifically override the preDispatch() method
* Place your authentication criteria in the preDispatch() method:
* Check against $this->getRequest()->getControllerName() and
$this->getRequest()->getActionName() when validating an action
against the credentials:
$request = $this->getRequest();
$controller = $request->getControllerName();
$action = $request->getActionName();
$if (!$auth->authRequired($controller, $action)) {
// all okay...
} else {
// need authentication...
}
* Do the following if you need the user to login:
$request = $this->getRequest();
$request->setControllerName('login')
->setActionName('login')
->setDispatched(false);
Then, in your bootstrap (index.php), do the following:
$controller = new Zend_Controller_Front();
$controller->registerPlugin(new My_Controller_Plugins())
->setParam('session', $session)
->setParam('db', $db)
->setControllerDirectory('../app/controllers');
$controller->dispatch();
