Comment on Using www-authenticate for user authenticationparent

Comments

Note that I said “authentication and accounting system”. You just described a very small part of that functionality. It’s the reason people adopt large frameworks like Django, and why PHP’s session management alone is insufficient.

You can look at functionality like Apache’s mod_authnz_ldap as an example of built in account management that integrates with HTTP basic auth.
