This module allows user authentication (and can log authenthication
|
||
|
|
requests) against information stored in a PostgreSQL database.
|
||
|
|
PostgreSQL is a public domain SQL database.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Authentication
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One database, and one (or two) tables. One table holds the username
|
||
|
|
and the encryped (or plain) password. The other table holds the
|
||
|
|
username and the names of the group to which the user belongs. It
|
||
|
|
is possible to have username, groupname and password in the same
|
||
|
|
table.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Access Logging
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Every authentication access is logged in the same database of the
|
||
|
|
authentication table, but in different table. User name and date
|
||
|
|
of the request are logged. As option, it can log password, ip
|
||
|
|
address, request line.
