For the web site, I'd like to use authentication based on the standard user/group specification, to avoid the management of multiple account per user.
I've found the way to setup authentication in Apache, but it doesn't work with /etc/passwd or /etc/group. Are these file formatted
In the meantime, I've found what seemed to be the correct
solution
http://pam.sourceforge.net/mod_auth_pam/
I installed version 1.0a and tried it... but it doesn't
work.
When I try to access the pages, I got an authentification
dialog, but I always got an error on authentication, as if I had put
a wrong userid or password. I've tried with several userid existing
on my server. No way.
