This module provides methods for authenticating a user.
|
||
|
|
It uses HTTPD::UserAdmin to lookup passwords in a
|
||
|
|
database. Subclasses provide methods specific to the
|
||
|
|
authentication mechanism.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Currently, under HTTP/1.0 the only supported
|
||
|
|
authentication mechanism is Basic Authentication. NCSA
|
||
|
|
Mosaic and NCSA HTTPd understand the proposed Message
|
||
|
|
Digest Authentication, which should make it into the HTTP
|
||
|
|
spec someday. This module supports both.
