I have configured the User Authentication sucessfully. I saw that there i=
s a=20
"role" field. Is this value a must field?

I made my own path building tables in a database for users, object and=20
permission. The permissions are for example:

Admin users, admin lists, create new data, etc.

Then I saw that there are some roles and some people are talking about th=
e=20
role importance and a way to create new roles. But it is not clear the wa=
y to=20
use it. How it can make our life a little easier.

I think I know how to use it, but it looks to me like a initial draft of =
a big=20
work in the future. This is how I see to the roles at the current level i=
n=20
the CVS. May be I am wrong and I hope tha I am ;).

Is there a example of how to use the roles and the more advanced features=
 of=20
the authentication Manager like ?

Can someone explain what is the importance of the role and how to use it?=
 How=20
to interact with roles and the other features of the Authentication manag=
er=20
tha can make our lifes better?

Thanks in advance,

Antonio Gallardo Rivera.
