I am building an enterprise application in rails that will have a few thousand users. I want to know what is the best authenticating platform. I can do a authenticating scaffold from scratch and have worked with Devise.
Only employees from specific companies should be able to log-on and request products. similar to amazon but specific for a few companies
What are the other options? What is the best course of action?
Devise is a powerful authentication system that should be able to handle what you want done perfectly.

I already developed a big part of my system but I'd like to know if rails 4 provides something interesting and easy to use for this means......Are there any libraries or built-in methods I could use to simplify sessions and users?
Strictly speaking as included in Rails, you may want to explore HttpAuthentication: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/HttpAuthentication/Basic.html
Otherwise the gems Monban and Devise are pretty popular.

I am trying to find some rails gem or any API delivering some random (non figurative) picture for avatar users, as the one that SO uses.
I tried gravatar but when I create some random hash and that I call the api via http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/#{hash}, I always get the same default image (independently of the hash)
So perhaps I misunderstood the purpose of gravatar, so is there any API or rails gem offering this service ?
Just add ?d=identicon to your query.

i am trying to make an web application using which a user will edit some posts, and after confirmation of administrator user these changes will reflect in POST table (Model). is there any GEM which can do this task.
Just for the sake of example we can named this system Dynamic Approval System.
Sorry for my bad elaboration, :)
You might want to try Draftsman
Draftsman is a Ruby gem that lets you create draft versions of your
database records. If you're developing a system in need of simple
drafts or a publishing approval queue, then Draftsman just might be
what you need.

Just started learning Ruby on Rails here, and I'm about to start working on a backend for content management for custom-built mobile clients, where the clients connect to the server through a web-service.
I figured that instead of reinventing the wheel it would probably be best to just use a well-respected CMS gem to manage users and the various objects (products, product categories, images, etc), but every single one I look at seem to be almost exclusively made for generating websites, and not to manage content for a webservice.
Are there any good RoR CMS gems out there that I can tailor to fit my needs, or do I have to write my own from scratch?
You could use rails_admin for your CMS application.

Is it possible to implement two step authentication in Rails using Google's android application Google Authenticator?
I want to implement two step verification similar to dropbox. They use Google Authenticator as well.
Is there any example code/application in rails?
A little googling has revealed a gem extension to devise that does this
https://github.com/AsteriskLabs/devise_google_authenticator
Or there's a blog post giving hints on how to roll your own
https://moocode.com/posts/5-simple-two-factor-ssh-authentication-with-google-authenticator
ActiveModel::Otp makes adding Two Factor Authentication(TFA) to a model simple https://github.com/heapsource/active_model_otp
I think this gem is way better since it's extendable. One can setup backup codes if you need.
