<H1>Module mod_auth_db</h1>
|
|
|
|
This module is contained in the <code>mod_auth_db.c</code> file, and
|
|
is not compiled in by default. It provides for user authentication using
|
|
Berkeley DB files. It is an alternative to <A HREF="../auth_dbm.html">DBM</A>
|
|
files for those systems which support DB and not DBM. It is only
|
|
available in Apache 1.1 and later.

|
|
|
The AuthDBGroupFile directive sets the name of a DB file containing the list
|
|
of user groups for user authentication. <em>Filename</em> is the absolute path
|
|
to the group file.<p>
|
|
|
|
The group file is keyed on the username. The value for a user is a
|
|
comma-separated list of the groups to which the users belongs. There must
|
|
be no whitespace within the value, and it must never contain any colons.<p>
|
|
|
|
Security: make sure that the AuthDBGroupFile is stored outside the
|
|
document tree of the webserver; do <em>not</em> put it in the directory that
|
|
it protects. Otherwise, clients will be able to download the
|
|
AuthDBGroupFile.<p>

<strong>Module:</strong> mod_auth_db<p>
|
|
|
|
The AuthDBUserFile directive sets the name of a DB file containing the list
|
|
of users and passwords for user authentication. <em>Filename</em> is the
|
|
absolute path to the user file.<p>
|
|
The user file is keyed on the username. The value for a user is the crypt()
|
|
encrypted password, optionally followed by a colon and arbitrary data.
|
|
The colon and the data following it will be ignored by the server.<p>
