I have a separate thread going on to setup webrtc with asterisk on NetBSD8.
I have an existing website that uses stock bozohttpd on NetBSD. It uses .htpasswd aka basic authentication. The passwords are stored using blowfish encryption. Whenever I open up use of sip/webrtc to users, as far as possible I don't want them to be bothered with yet another password and preferably not even ask to enter the same password when using the webrtc app. Firstly asterisk doesn't seem to support blowfish. It supports md5, which bozohttpd also does (I guess). So I may have to have all passwords reset once - which is not so good, but acceptable. That may solve the `no 2 passwords' requirement. But I'd prefer not to prompt for a password for asterisk if the user has reached the landing page of webrtc app with basic auth. That seems difficult, as browser will have to send the credentials to asterisk directly. [I can possibly have a separate asterisk password which I can return to the browser to let it send it to asterisk, but that may be somewhat insecure.] Mayuresh
