I have been investigating some user authentication options for Koha user access via Internet: Mainly: * Apache AuthenDBI at: http://www.perldoc.com/cpan/Apache/AuthenDBI.html * mod_auth_mysql at: ftp://ftp.kciLink.com/pub/ * averist at: http://www.edlund.org/hacks/averist/ and a whole swag of good stuff here: http://www.apache-tools.com/search.jsp?k=1&category=Authentication&no_head=1&step=30&start=1 So far I think mod_auth_mysql looks most flexible of the standard Apache modules - I am probably biased because it was the easiest to get going here, works nicely with cookies, and has a third party, web based, password management interface - I have it working fine with my koha test setup. I have not been able to get AuthenDBI working properly here - and I don't want to have to recompile Apache. (or to run mod_perl) on my test server. 'averist' looked good but no documentation - perl gurus would probably find it easy-peasy: http://www.edlund.org/hacks/averist/ Before I go too far - Anyone suggest any reason(s) why options (such as AuthenDBI for example) may be a better option (compared with mod_mysql) for use with koha? Thanx, R.
