Thanks Masi.

The point is that with the standard TYPO3 solution (similar to what you 
recommend) TYPO3 "overrulez" the external authentication.

Example:
If a user logs in the external source is queried. But as long as the 
user is logged in there is NO more check if the user is still allowed to 
see restricted content, i.e. if the user gets deleted or "hidden" on the 
external system, TYPO3 doesn't realize.

So the question is if there are already work arounds or plans to extend 
the auth service to fix that?

Regs. Peter.
