Re: [phpesp-dev] wish list - authentication info

[Christopher Z. <zo...@mu...>]

I have not looked at it in a long time. But if you look at the 'lib' directory
in the 'include' directory and you will see espauth.inc and espauth-ldap.inc 
Now, if I remember correctly all espauth-ldap.inc does a ldap query for authorization
and then returns true if authenticated. Authorization and other things are done 
in phpESP. I guess what I am saying is the only documentation is the source. :) 
Maybe, if I have time I can change that. Anyway, with drupal. It allready handles 
multiple forms of authentication, correct? You could make a phpespauth-drupal.inc
and use drupal's code. Or have a script or tool that that inc file calls and authenicates
against drupal. Does that make sense?
