The authentication I'm adding does not affect the Simulation connectors;
just the ones between the simulators and the robust services. If you're
not using robust, this doesn't affect you at all.

Hi Crista,
I use the HTTP protocol when my agents "breed" (instantiate/create) entirely
new agent users during runtime. As you say, the code base hasn't changed in some time.
So, this feature of my individual-based model has been stable and predictable for some
time.
As you may recall from previous conversations, I use the hypergrid
configuration in a standalone form on a single machine (AKA serverless grid)
with 16 simultaneous instances.
Do you anticipate that the changes you're making will impact legacy users like
me and that I may loose the ability to create new users via the HTTP interface?
Best regards,
Chris

Subject: [Opensim-dev] Basic HTTP authentication

Hi all,
I'm about to send up a patch that adds an optional Basic HTTP
authentication to robust service connectors. This restores the very old
"password" that existed in OpenSim a few years ago and that was removed.
This time, it's done using the standard HTTP protocol. My patch uses a
generic authentication object interface whose concrete class can be
changed as needed. Right now there's only BasicHttpAuthentication class,
but if someone wants to use something else, it should be easy to write
another class that does something different.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Crista
