Hi all,
Here's a question I'm hoping somebody knows an answer to. I've experimenting with cocoon, which of course is excellent at doing things like remapping xml files so that users think they are reading a file in html, and the like. The Digital Medievalist site is in fact produced using cocoon which transforms the underlying xml.
What I need to be able to do is use passwords to protect this site. I've read up on cocoon's authentication model, including the sample code. But they don't give examples with kind of authentication backend I'm most familiar with .htpasswd (or any at all, really).
Does anybody have experience with cocoon's authentication, particularly using an easy-to-set-up authentication backend (and even better .htpasswd)? I appreciate any suggestions, especially since, as this project is in pre-funding mode, I'll have to learn any system proposed rather than having the money to hire somebody who knows what they are doing.
