| Summary : Form authentication
|
Description :
Form authentication depends on the mod_session modules, and these modules
make use of HTTP cookies, and as such can fall victim to Cross Site Scripting
attacks, or expose potentially private information to clients. Please ensure
that the relevant risks have been taken into account before enabling the
session functionality on your server.
This module allows the use of an HTML login form to restrict access by
looking up users in the given providers. HTML forms require significantly
more configuration than the alternatives, however an HTML login form can
provide a much friendlier experience for end users.
HTTP basic authentication is provided by mod_auth_basic, and HTTP digest
authentication is provided by mod_auth_digest. This module should be
combined with at least one authentication module such as mod_authn_file
and one authorization module such as mod_authz_user.
Once the user has been successfully authenticated, the user\'s login details
will be stored in a session provided by mod_session.
