And that's a pretty common case.
I'm +0 for htpasswd for this very reason. Personally I prefer to use a DB-based password store for my Trac servers, and to support SVN auth I wrote a simple mod_python auth handler that connects to said database. Works for me, but not for everyone. I suppose one could contribute an Apache module in C for using Trac auth, but I doubt anyone wants to support that. Otherwise, I'm not sure of a way other than htpasswd that would be widely supported. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Development" group.
