Hey guys,

How would I go about implementing digest authentication within lift? I
don't really want to implement this at pure web-server level (e.g.
jetty or tomcat) as I need it to interact with my application.

I've done some reading, and whilst there seem to be a few browser
compatibility issues with various different client implementations
(with IE for instance), it seems to just be a case of presenting the
right HTTP headers. My use case is for this is for REST type services,
so the browser issues shouldn't be an issue at all as we'll document
the implementation used in lift for anyone who wants to implement it.

So then, my question is, where can I implement this functionality?
Ideally, what Id like is to build some kind of hook system so that
people can wire up there own functions upon the authentication request
(e.g. to query a database etc)

Thoughts?

Cheers

Tim
