I’m using this approach when user creates groups.

So, I do the following:
1. Create a group (id:43)
$group = new sfGuardGroup();
$group->setName(’My own group’);
$group->save();

2. Create permissions like group_43_owner, group_43_member.

$permission_group_owner = new sfGuardPermission();
$permission_group_owner->setName(’group_’ . $group->getId() . ‘_owner’);
$permission_group_owner->save();

… same for a member

and the question is the following:

How can I add these permissions the the user?
I saw $user->addPermissionByName(’buyer’);
Can I have something like:
$user->addPermission(
$permission_group_owner);

Thanks in advance!

Will you be releasing some code snippets or a module to do the extra items you talked about in this article?

Kudos for a great article and site.. Love it!
