[fusion-users] User Based Access

[Tom van der Putte]

Hi
all,
 I'm looking for a way to control access to different Fusion and
Mapserver (v5.2.1) functionalities. I would like the following options
by requiring users to log in. Based upon the clearance level if the
user, it should be possible to control 
  * Access to layers
  * Access to fusion Tools/Widgets (hide widgets for some users)
  * Be able to check what access level a user has within any Fusion
PHP script (and subsequently act upon this level (show/hide content,
allow/prohibit certain queries through a custom querying widget etc.)
  * Perhaps even allow people to save stuff (i.e. previously done
queries)
 It would also be important to be able to create different 'access
levels'.
 I'm no PHP wizard (I know enough to create some custom widgets and
use mapscript), especially not on the whole 'session & security'
thing. I'm trying to figure out what to do: 
 * Use/alter any existing user access control mechanism: Are there
any options that you know of that would be suitable?
 * Or outsource it to someone who can create such a framework.
 Because it has to interact specifically with Fusions scripts I
decided to post it here instead of the mapserver user list.
 I would welcome any ideas that you have!
 Cheers, Tom
