Hi all,
I'm reworking a C::A site to provide more flexibility and control.
This site has been functioning using Apache Basic Authentication and
that has served it's purpose up to now. I would like to use a sql
database to store user information and retrieve access rights based
upon group membership. If I use Apache built-in authorization modes,
I can control location authorization in the host config. I may be
missing something but I have not seen a mod_auth_mysql module for
apache.
I essentially would like any request to the site redirected to a
login page if not logged in. This I know how to do. Would you make a
static login page on index.html? or point into the application and
let it handle the rest. If I want full control over served content,
do I set the document root to be in my C::A base module? and redirect
for static content? Must each page then be a template? or am I making
this all too hard?
Sorry if this is confusing, it probably shows where my thoughts are
at the moment.
