Authentication/Roles/Permissions Setup

[Robert Klubenspies]

Hello all,

Let me first start by saying that Cream looks VERY promising. I'm
already loving what I see! Being a recent convert from PHP to RoR, I'm
a little stuck. What I'm having problems with is spring-boarding off
of the example active record Cream app. How could I go about correctly
setting up my Cream powered app so that all of my permissions are
regulated from one file? Should this be programmed in a permit or
license? Is there any code example you could please attach for
restricting access to certain methods for certain role groups? I'm
just having a hard time figuring this all out. I do, however, have 7
1/2 years of programming experience, so I should be able to spring-
board from a solid example.

Thanks,
Robert
