I also have a Trac plugin that will do this.  It's in kinda rough shape, but
works for me.  I enable this plugin, and disable the default Trac auth plugin,
and I'm all set.  It has a login page, cookies, and if you use my
UserDirectory patch, you can restrict users (ticket owners, etc) to only the
users in your db table.
