Isn't the HTTP authentication implementation already built into
AOLserver, via ns_conn authuser and ns_conn authpassword?

I have a site which has a filter registered to /*.  That filter merely
looks at ns_conn authuser/ns_conn authpassword and then authenticates
against a file -- you could to the same, and do a db call to validate
the user's credentials.
