1: .LRN Authentication

Posted by Ashem Yadava on 05/04/04 01:37 AM

I am working on HTTP based authentication for dotLRN. I would like to know in which database table (postgres) are the username and password stored so that I can verify them with the one entered by the user.

I would appreciate if you can specify the package in which the authentication table is stored so that I can do a SELECT to view all the users and their encrypted passwords.

I may be wrong since I have just started. If you have similar suggesstion then kindly let me know.

Many thanks
Ashem

I have found out that the users table holds the username and passwords of the users.

I would appreciate if anyone can add more to the main topic of HTTP based authentication.

Thanks
Ashem

Why aren't you using the .LRN permissions system?
