Hi list...
I need a way of managing users/teams/etc.. implementing roles/access
rights/privs,etc...
I'd like a way of being able to have users "report to" the resource above
them, ie, the ability to have a hierarchical kind of tree approach would be
good as wel, as this would allow different user/mgr/teams to be moved
up/down in the tree as required.
If I can find the right process, I'll implement it in my targeted app. I'd
prefer something that's fairly well compartmentalized.. but if need be, I'm
willing to rip the right system out of it's parent app if I can find one
that's good!!!
I've reviewed the systems in the vtiger/knowledgetree apps.
thoughts/comments/pointers would be useful!
thanks!

Take a look at Zend_Acl
If your needs are bigger than a simple user/group access schema as you
describe, then I would suggest considering LDAP.
PHP has support for it although I haven't wrote something using this
API. I have been using it to authenticate my users some years ago an it
is quite fast and rich.
You certainly have a tree since LDAP is a directory although AFAIK it is
slower when writing if you compare it with a database but much faster
when reading data. So in case your users' info are changing very often
then this is probably not the best solution for you but in any other
case try to see if it fits your needs.
