Have a look at DB_Complex_Admin, inderting a new user is considered administration work and should not be found in the main class, it would clutter the API for something you don't use quite often. > For my needs a permisson container DB_Simple would be sufficient.

Have alook at the draft tutorial. A sample application will be put online in the next weeks to show what it does and the code that does it. > If nobody is using LiveUser yet, I would be glad to get some > advices on > other classes that you use to provide the desired functionality. For permissions there was a talk on Enterprise A&A, i don't know where it stands though. There is also phpacl or something like that. HTH Arnaud.
