I am looking at this github app, and they have a module named AuthenticatedSystem.

I googled and found a rdoc, but can't find the source code for the module.

Anyone heard of this? I know there are other authentication modules out there, but I am looking to just learn from this one as it looks simple to me.

+2  A: 

Yes, the AuthenticatedSystem module is part of the highly popular restful_authentication plugin:

I hope this helps!

so its possible to just use the authenticated_system.rb in your /lib directory and not the entire plugin?

No, authenticated_system is only part of restful_authentication. The plugin also gives you test helpers, to simulate logging in as specific users, and the generator to create your user model with the needed fields.
