| <h3>Summary</h3>
 | ||
| 
 | ||
|     <p>This module implements HTTP Digest Authentication
 | ||
|     (<a href="http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2617.html">RFC2617</a>), and
 | ||
|     provides an alternative to <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_basic.html">mod_auth_basic</a></code> where the
 | ||
|     password is not transmitted as cleartext. However, this does
 | ||
|     <strong>not</strong> lead to a significant security advantage over
 | ||
|     basic authentication. On the other hand, the password storage on the
 | ||
|     server is much less secure with digest authentication than with
 | ||
|     basic authentication. Therefore, using basic auth and encrypting the
 | ||
|     whole connection using <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code> is a much better
 | ||
|     alternative.</p>

|     <p>To use MD5 Digest authentication, configure the location to be
 | ||
|     protected as shown in the below example:</p>
 | ||
| 
 | ||
|     <div class="example"><h3>Example:</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config"><Location "/private/">
 | ||
|     AuthType Digest
 | ||
|     AuthName "private area"
 | ||
|     AuthDigestDomain "/private/" "http://mirror.my.dom/private2/"
 | ||
| 
 | ||
|     AuthDigestProvider file
 | ||
|     AuthUserFile "/web/auth/.digest_pw"
 | ||
|     Require valid-user
 | ||
| </Location></pre>
 | ||
| </div>
 | ||
| 
 | ||
|     <p><code class="directive"><a href="#authdigestdomain">AuthDigestDomain</a></code>
 | ||
|     should list the locations that will be protected by this
 | ||
|     configuration.</p>
 | ||
| 
 | ||
|     <p>The password file referenced in the <code class="directive"><a href="#authuserfile">AuthUserFile</a></code> directive may be
 | ||
|     created and managed using the <code class="program"><a href="../programs/htdigest.html">htdigest</a></code> tool.</p>
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| 
 | ||
|     <div class="note"><h3>Note</h3>
 | ||
|     <p>Digest authentication was intended to be more secure than basic
 | ||
|     authentication, but no longer fulfills that design goal. A
 | ||
|     man-in-the-middle attacker can trivially force the browser to downgrade
 | ||
|     to basic authentication. And even a passive eavesdropper can brute-force
 | ||
|     the password using today's graphics hardware, because the hashing
 | ||
|     algorithm used by digest authentication is too fast. Another problem is
 | ||
|     that the storage of the passwords on the server is insecure. The contents
 | ||
|     of a stolen htdigest file can be used directly for digest authentication.
 | ||
|     Therefore using <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code> to encrypt the whole connection is
 | ||
|     strongly recommended.</p>
 | ||
|     <p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_digest.html">mod_auth_digest</a></code> only works properly on platforms
 | ||
|       where APR supports shared memory.</p>

 | ||
|     The specified URIs are prefixes; the client will assume

|     <p>The <code class="directive">AuthDigestShmemSize</code> directive defines
 | ||
|     the amount of shared memory, that will be allocated at the server
 | ||
|     startup for keeping track of clients. Note that the shared memory
 | ||
|     segment cannot be set less than the space that is necessary for
 | ||
|     tracking at least <em>one</em> client. This value is dependent on your
 | ||
|     system. If you want to find out the exact value, you may simply
 | ||
|     set <code class="directive">AuthDigestShmemSize</code> to the value of
 | ||
|     <code>0</code> and read the error message after trying to start the
 | ||
|     server.</p>
 | ||
| 
 | ||
|     <p>The <var>size</var> is normally expressed in Bytes, but you
 | ||
|     may follow the number with a <code>K</code> or an <code>M</code> to
 | ||
|     express your value as KBytes or MBytes. For example, the following
 | ||
|     directives are all equivalent:</p>
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">AuthDigestShmemSize 1048576
 | ||
| AuthDigestShmemSize 1024K
 | ||
| AuthDigestShmemSize 1M</pre>
