Re: Unique Home Page

[Dondi Williams <dsmt05@xxxxxxxxx>]

This EXACTLY what I need....

I believe he wanted something like "Apache should return the
appropriate homepage, on the base of the UID the user used to login on
the PC".
I don't really think we're talking about LDAP or SQL here..

There is no LDAP or SQL involved. The reason I mentioned PHP is in case there was a way to attack the problem through a PHP script. I also have MySQL installed and operational.

My family members and I use the same PC in our study (when not on their iMacs and laptops). This is primarily the system I use so I have created several web pages with links to everything I use or don't want to have to remember and add bookmarks for. Now when one of the family members login with their Windows ID and call up FireFox (don't use and can't stand IE) I would like for there to be a way to have their own "home" page on this system.

which of the multiple authentication schemes will best suit the needs?

As far as can be determined from the OP's post, this is a single home PC, used by close family members.  From the question itself, I would also dare to guess that the OP is not really an expert at Apache or HTTP or authentication matters.

It's a toss-up as to which login model he meant.

An immediate solution that springs to mind would be to install an identd service on the Windows box. Surely there's an ident module for Apache?
