__TOC__
This article describes how to get CKFinder up and running by adjusting some basic settings.

== The CheckAuthentication() Function ==
By default, CKFinder will not work due to authentication restrictions. You must first make sure that you have configured it correctly, and then enable it.

Once you have completely configured CKFinder, you are ready to enable it for use. The <code>CheckAuthentication()</code> function is used for that. In this function you must implement the code ensuring that the requests are coming from an authenticated user. This is usually done by assigning a session variable when the user logs into your system.

If the user is properly authenticated, the fuction should return <code>true</code>. We strongly recommend you to '''NOT''' simply return <code>true</code> from this function without implementing authentication checks. Without authentication support anonymous users would be able to use CKFinder on your website, including uploading and deleting files from your server.

The following is a sample implementation of the <code>CheckAuthentication() function:
