I wish to use form-based authentication that accepts users with the following credentials:
username = any string (ex.: "test") password = length of username (ex: "4") This is a silly security system, I admit. However, a solution to this problem will help me to solve my *real* problem. Obviously, a database of any sort is inappropriate, since there are infinitely many valid credentials, and unnecessary, since the password can be computed from the username. After reading through the archives, I have the impression that I must implement a custom realm. Where can I go to learn how this is done? Hints greatly appreciated.
