Hello, all - I've seen several examples on how to implement basic authentication, drawing usernames and passwords with anything from a simple text file, to a large LDAP or MySQL server. I'd like to take it one step further. We are developing an application in-house that does a few things, including username/password authentication. I'd like to somehow implement this system into Apache's existing basic authentication, in a manner that is consistant with these other third-party authentication modules. For right now, something as simple as piping the username and password as an argument to a binary that is executed every time basic authentication is attempted, would work fine. I almost expect that, with the introduction of multiple authentication modules, a username and password could be piped as arguments to an external executable would be existant, but I'm just not sure. Anyone have any tips and/or tricks for me? Thanks! -dant --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
