Hello, I've got a custom app that interacts with a database. I want to use something stronger than .htaccess to protect it and ssl is not available as this is a shared host. There will be several user's accessing this app and updating the database through it. What i was thinking was giving each a unique username, password, and ID string, which would be somehow used to compute a hash and if that would match access could be granted. That's just a guess on my part, i'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks. Dave.
Since you're not going to go over SSL, then nothing you can do will be stronger since it all flies out in plaintext over the internet.
