Re: Remembering Authentication

[Sean D. Cook]

Why not just write the app to use session and store to the db.  It is not
hard to do.  Auth to db/ldap cook up a digest with $$, username, and
remote_ip.  Store all userinfo in Storable object in the db/ldap.  

GET http://some.where.net/?sessionID=<md5 digest>

POST <input type=hidden name=sessionID value=<md5 digest>>

No worrying about browser type, client configuration... you should be all
set.  Stay away from cookies.  Cookies are bad when you have paying
customers!!
