    3 This is a plugin that enables authentication against a Joomla! 2.5 host. It works by simply reading out the Session cookie, and using the session data from Joomla! that is stored in MySQL. It also contains an authz_policy implementation that is able to authenticate against the Joomla groups of the user. This means you can create very flexible access rules based on the Joomla! user.

    5 The port to Joomla 2.5 should make this much more useful for other people out there. I have currently dropped the support for the "Keep me logged in" cookie; it would be nice to have that back for obvious reasons.
