node.js connect-auth app? example (user registration / user / session management)

I'm trying to get the hang of node.js and am looking for an authentication example. Hopefully with connect-auth and using http digest with hash and salt.

I watched this but it doesn't seem very secure:

http://nodetuts.com/tutorials/13-authentication-in-express-sessions-and-route-middleware.html#video

Does anyone have a better example?
Mongodb preferred!

User Management and authentication is what I'm looking for.

Since i was mentioned by @jpstrikesback, i'll post an answer here :)

I recently built 2 applications on top of the whole Express/Connect stack (node-blog and node-chat). node-chat is the more recent project, i just updated it to work with the most recent Express 2 Beta ([email protected]) and Connect 1.0 ([email protected]). node-blog may follow later this day ;)

node-chat also contains some socket.io awesomeness and is the more tidy project in general. If you have any questions concerning one of those projects, just get at me at SO.

NOTE: since connect-mongodb is broken for the latest release of Connect, i'm using the in-memory session storage for now (until the connect-mongodb middleware is fixed).

Update: there is a new session storage middleware for connect, seems to be working : connect-mongo

Well, this is cheeky cause Schaermu should get the points :) but this should be helpful:

Express authentication using Redis for session store and Couchdb for database (in coffeescript!)

https://gist.github.com/652819

You need to fetch the modules from NPM or via git.

Hope this helps :)
