basically boinc keeps the hashed authenticator as a cookie, so if that is set then you are logged in. I have a modification I use with WordPress so that you can login on the WordPress side and when you get to the BOINC side of the website you'll be logged in (i.e. it creates the WordPress account but uses the BOINC login authentication to validate both the WordPress website and the BOINC website).
This is probably more than you really need, but basically you want to: 1) check (in PHP) that the user.passwd_hash field = md5($entered_password . $entered_username). Then if that matches set a cookie named "auth" to be the user.authenticator field. BOINC pages should then see this as "logged in" and should fill in the appropriate $user settings in PHP so when you move around the BOINC pages you will be logged in etc. _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
