Hello,

I would to know if if does it possible to have something like this :

acts\_as\_authentic do |c|  
c.login\_field = :user\_name  
c.crypted\_password\_field = :user\_passwd  
c.persistence\_token = :pertok  
end

Using the “pertok” field instead of the “persistence\_token” field ?  
Or say to Ror to use the “user\_passwd” as “persistence\_token” field.

How to generate a persistence token ?

Thanks in advance ! 🙂
