Do you have your login script or no ?
If not, try to integrate a login script ( this would be nice : http://www.free2code.net/plugins/articles/read.php?id=99 , you have to regsiter first, login and then append the URL ) with the link posted by sangeetha.

i am new to all this so bare with me. It seems t me that the link describes in great detail how to use a "remember me" feature. And i have to say i got a bit lost.
what about the actual login?
