Re: How to sign up using Apache

[Ahmad Ismail <ismail783@xxxxxxxxx>]

Who writes to dbm password files? I mean how are new users registered?

If apache authenticates using `mod_auth_basic` or `mod_auth_digest`  then someone must put the users with their credentials there.

Best regards,

There is no built-in module that provides user registration - that is something you would need to implement yourself.

I can sign in or sign out using mod_auth_form.

How to sign up when using the Apache authentication system?

I guess that module has to write to dbm password files.

Just to be clear, I want to use `mod_authn_socache` to maintain the cache.

Is there any module or mechanism to do this?
