Authenticating a CakePHP app within an already built system

Hi Guys,

We have an intranet, and I have decided to use CakePHP to build an
application within it.

We currently authenticate the users and their username/password
(hashed) is stored in sessions

I've managed to get this info in the bootstrap file of CakePHP

so I now have Configure::read('password') and Configure:read
('password') available in the Cake App...

I have a database table with usernames in and related data,

what is the best way of using this information to authenticate the
user?

Thanks in advance

Jen
