|
||
<p>This module does access control in a manner similar to
|
||
anonymous-ftp sites; <em>i.e.</em> have a 'magic' user id
|
||
'anonymous' and the email address as a password. These email
|
||
addresses can be logged.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Combined with other (database) access control methods, this
|
||
allows for effective user tracking and customization according
|
||
to a user profile while still keeping the site open for
|
||
'unregistered' users. One advantage of using Auth-based user
|
||
tracking is that, unlike magic-cookies and funny URL
|
||
pre/postfixes, it is completely browser independent and it
|
||
allows users to share URLs.</p>

<p>The example below (when combined with the Auth directives of a

htpasswd-file based (or GDM, mSQL <em>etc.</em>) base access
|

control system allows users in as 'guests' with the following

<li>It insists that the user enters a userId.

|
||
|
||
<li>It insists that the user enters a password.
|
||
(<code>Anonymous_MustGiveEmail</code>)</li>
|
||
|
||
<li>The password entered must be a valid email address, ie.
|
||
contain at least one '@' and a '.'.
|

(<code>Anonymous_VerifyEmail</code>)</li>
|

|

<li>The userID must be one of <code>anonymous guest www test

|

<li>And the Email addresses entered in the passwd field are

<p>A list of one or more 'magic' userIDs which are allowed
|
||
access without password verification. The userIDs are space
|
||
separated. It is possible to use the ' and " quotes to allow a
|
||
space in a userID as well as the \ escape character.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Please note that the comparison is
|
||
<strong>case-IN-sensitive</strong>.<br />
|
||
I strongly suggest that the magic username
|
||
'<code>anonymous</code>' is always one of the allowed
|
||
userIDs.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Example:</p>
|
||
<div class="example"><p><code>Anonymous anonymous "Not Registered" 'I don\'t know'</code></p></div>
|
||
|
||
<p>This would allow the user to enter without password
|
||
verification by using the userId's 'anonymous',
|
||
'AnonyMous','Not Registered' and 'I Don't Know'.</p>

access is denied.</p>
|

|

<p>Be sure you know what you are doing when you decide to

switch it on. And remember that it is the linking order of the

modules (in the Configuration / Make file) which details the

order in which the Authorization modules are queried.</p>

<p>When set <code>on</code>, users can leave the userID (and

perhaps the password field) empty. This can be very convenient for

MS-Explorer users who can just hit return or click directly on the

OK button; which seems a natural reaction.</p>
