Re: Authorization in a different way

hey amos,

maybe my english is too bad or maybe i am just not getting it. i can not use any kind of ip as authentication or authorization. first of all because of nat and second would be that the ip of a user changes regarding his location (mobile network).

my understanding of ext_session_acl is or was that it uses an ip to create the session?! so if ip changes the session is dropped (can happen every 5min or when i am lucky the ip does not change for a couple of hours).
