Sounds fantastic!

I just tried to download it, though, and got 404-not found errors.

I've been promising this for a year, but it's undergone plenty of
refinement to make it worthwhile.

You can download my new phpauth code at:
http://www.phpauth.com/

This is a replacement for the authentication functionality of phplib.
It only works with php4, and relies on php4's sessioning.  It works with
register_globals turned off, and requires that magic_quotes also be
turned off.  It's nearly a drop-in replacement for phplib.

I am using this code on 5 production sites currently, so it should work
fine.

If you're looking at an easy upgrade path from phplib for php4, this is
it.

A few of the features that separate it from phplib:

1. uses php4 sessioning
2. register_globals off (more secure)
3. form variables are passed through login/registration forms
4. auth class doesn't exist unless they are authenticated

See the docs directory and sample site (http://sample.phpauth.com/) for
more details.
