An idea came to my mind right now. You could either create your own plugin which implements ACL, groups etc. I'm sure somebody will need it one day ;) That's how things come to being. The other thing is that when an user is created he or the admin can set an attribut in which group he/she belongs like in *nix system. Or you can use a default setting etc.
Example Normally you would have a user model with the following attributes User: - name - password - ... Than you create a group model and assosiate a user to a group or to several groups. You could also mark/flag some resources with an group id/attribute, so that an user can access that resource only iff he is a member of that certain group. Just like *nix platforms. Hope, I could help. Btw I'm a Rails newby, but that was an idea that came to my mind. Maybe a rails veteran can add some comment.
