[Cppcms-users] Simple user/password authentication with CppCMS-Embedded server

[piotr.lewicki <pio...@el...>]

Hello,
I'm creating a simple web interface for my embedded device.
I have done it using GNU cgicc and used lighttpd server, but now I would 
like to switch to CppCMS because it has it's own server (CppCMS-Embedded).
For now everything looks perfect and working with it is very nice but 
I'm missing one feature which is a user/password authentication.

On my previous setup I used lighty's "mod_auth" for it but since I want 
to get rid of lighttpd - I need this in CppCMS.
I searched for it but couldn't find anything.

Could you help me with coming up with a solution?
How can I implement simple user/password authentication for CppCMS 
application?

Thanks,
Piotr Lewicki

CppCMS does not currently provide built in HTTP authentication.

However it shouldn't be too hard to implement:
