I'll take a look at this. I know that Rails 3 has a new way of doing things, but every Rails 2.3.x authentication system I've seen uses some kind of remember token. Maybe we're all just doing it wrong. :-) Update: I don't see any way to persist the session variable (where do the options go in session[:user_id] = user.id?), and I'm a little nervous about doing so, since the whole point of a session is that it doesn't persist. I'll stick with cookies for now. The Rails 3 version of the tutorial will probably use "permanent" cookies as per this blog post: http://m.onkey.org/2010/2/5/signed-and-permanent-cookies-in-rails-3 http://m.onkey.org/2010/2/5/signed-and-permanent-cookies-in-...
