What I have done is require an 'auth.php' on each page that, well,
requires it. auth.php in turn loads Auth.php and instantiates an Auth,
passing among other things 'dsn'=>DSN in the $options array, where DSN is
a constant defined elsewhere. Worksforme. For even less work, you might
consider doing this by setting a auto_prepend_file directive in an
.htaccess file in the directory in question.
