<h3>Summary</h3>
|
||
|
||
<p>This module provides authentication front-ends such as
|
||
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_digest.html">mod_auth_digest</a></code> and <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_basic.html">mod_auth_basic</a></code>
|
||
to authenticate users by looking up users in <dfn>dbm</dfn> password
|
||
files. Similar functionality is provided by
|
||
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_authn_file.html">mod_authn_file</a></code>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>When using <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_basic.html">mod_auth_basic</a></code> or
|
||
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_digest.html">mod_auth_digest</a></code>, this module is invoked via the
|
||
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_basic.html#authbasicprovider">AuthBasicProvider</a></code> or
|
||
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_digest.html#authdigestprovider">AuthDigestProvider</a></code>
|
||
with the <code>dbm</code> value.</p>

<p>Sets the type of database file that is used to store the passwords.
|
||
The default database type is determined at compile time. The
|
||
availability of other types of database files also depends on
|
||
<a href="../install.html#dbm">compile-time settings</a>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>It is crucial that whatever program you use to create your password
|
||
files is configured to use the same type of database.</p>

<p>The <code class="directive">AuthDBMUserFile</code> directive sets the
|
||
name of a DBM file containing the list of users and passwords for
|
||
user authentication. <var>File-path</var> is the absolute path to
|
||
the user file.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>The user file is keyed on the username. The value for a user is
|
||
the encrypted password, optionally followed by a colon and arbitrary
|
||
data. The colon and the data following it will be ignored by the
|
||
server.</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="warning"><h3>Security:</h3>
|
||
<p>Make sure that the <code class="directive">AuthDBMUserFile</code> is stored
|
||
outside the document tree of the web-server; do <em>not</em> put it in
|
||
the directory that it protects. Otherwise, clients will be able to
|
||
download the <code class="directive">AuthDBMUserFile</code>.</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
<p>Important compatibility note: The implementation of
|
||
<code>dbmopen</code> in the apache modules reads the string length of
|
||
the hashed values from the DBM data structures, rather than relying
|
||
upon the string being NULL-appended. Some applications, such as
|
||
the Netscape web server, rely upon the string being
|
||
NULL-appended, so if you are having trouble using DBM files
|
||
interchangeably between applications this may be a part of the
|
||
problem.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>A perl script called
|
||
<code class="program"><a href="../programs/dbmmanage.html">dbmmanage</a></code> is included with
|
||
Apache. This program can be used to create and update DBM
|
||
format password files for use with this module.</p>
