You will probably have to use basic authentication and write your own helper. Basic auth helpers aren't that complicated - they read 'user password' on STDIN and print 'OK' or 'ERR' on STDOUT in an endless loop. Basic auth gives the password in clear text. Just have your helper generate the SSHA hash of that password, and compare it to the password entry in the file. Print 'OK' for matches and 'ERR' otherwise. Adam
