Authlogic administration

Rails
1

Whats the best way to use administration with authlogic?

I have a single admin role and a limited users role.
The admin section is namespaced.

Is using a plugin like lockdown or declarative_authorization a good idea
or overkill for only having 2 seperate roles?

thanks

Authlogic explicitly does not handle authorization, just authentication.
For authorization, I’ve been either using rails_authorization or rolling
my own. I think I’d recommend using a plugin.
