This module provides the mod_auth_basic authentication front-end a way to
|
||
|
|
authenticate users by checking credentials via the Cyrus SASL library.
|
||
|
|
This may be interesting for setups where other daemons (e.g. for SMTP, IMAP
|
||
|
|
or LDAP) already running at a machine use SASL to authenticate users. The
|
||
|
|
module is also useful to authenticate users against databases that use shadow
|
||
|
|
passwords. You do not need to elevate Apache HTTPD's access rights to
|
||
|
|
superuser privileges.
