If we decide to use Pepr, we need to use the the PEAR classes it needs (there is no point in rewriting them). For the DB access, I think we don't need any external class. > - do we use the magiccookie login info and an array for the admins (in_array, > simple but bugs.php.net also does this) The permission system we are going to use is the magic cookie. The master server has already a script to let us authenticate the users (which has the token broken). It won't be difficult to write (I can do that), and it won't use any PEAR classes. Nuno
