Hello KD, you can have a look at the "org.restlet.ext.crypto" module. It proposes the implementation of several schemes (such as http_digest, sharedkey, etc). The registration process (in the Engine.registeredAuthenticators member) relies on the META-INF/services/org.restlet.engine.security.AuthenticatorHelper that must be present on the classpath.
Feel free to ask for more details. Best regards, Thierry Boileau > Hi Guys, > > I've trolled the forums and searched the wiki, but i've yet to find anything > substantial on this.
