I must admit i'm kinda lost right now, > any hints on how i can proceed ? a) If you don´t want to use PEAR::Auth itself but want to keep using the existing user database, write a new Liveuser auth container that makes use of the PEAR::Auth database structure. To do that, you can simply copy the existing container and modify the queries accordingly. b) If you want to keep using the PEAR::Auth class for authentication, but want to add permission management via Liveuser, you simply don´t use Liveuser´s LoginManager class, using the permission container class directly instead. All you´d need to do is make sure that there´s an entry in the table "liveuser_perm_users" for each user that is in the PEAR::Auth user table, so the permission container will know about them.
