Form authentication frontend with sfGuardPlugin

In the series "I dug up tutorials that I wrote last year" Here is a tutorial for symfony . It was written for 1.2 but I still think it should be compatible to 1.4 (to check anyway). The purpose of this tutorial is to show you how to simply and quickly, a form of authentication for the frontend application in a component, all with sfGuardPlugin (phew!). I invite you to read the passage, the plugin documentation and excerpt from guide to symfony 1.2 , which will always help you / supplement this article.
