- 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.
+HTTPD-User-Manage is set of Perl modules for managing access control
+with the Apache, NCSA httpd, CERN and Netscape servers (and maybe some
+others).
- 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.
+You can install this program as a CGI script to allow remote users to
+change their Web access passwords. Web administrators can use it to
+remotely add, edit and delete users and their groups. You can also use
+it from the command line as a nice all-in-one interface to access
+control databases based on text files, DBM files, and SQL databases.
