<P>
This routine is called to check the authentication information sent
with the request (such as looking up the user in a database and
verifying that the [encrypted] password sent matches the one in the
database).
<P>
To obtain the username, use <code>req.user</code>. To obtain the password
entered by the user, use the <code>req.get_basic_auth_pw()</code> function.
<P>
A return of <code>apache.OK</code> means the authentication succeeded. A
return of <code>apache.HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED</code> with most browser will bring
up the password dialog box again. A return of
<code>apache.HTTP_FORBIDDEN</code> will usually show the error on the
browser and not bring up the password dialog
<code>again. HTTP_FORBIDDEN</code> should be used when authentication
succeeded, but the user is not permitted to access a particular URL.
<P>
An example authentication handler might look like this:
<P>
<div class="verbatim"><pre>
def authenhandler(req):
pw = req.get_basic_auth_pw()
user = req.user
if user == "spam" and pw == "eggs":
return apache.OK
else:
return apache.HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED
</pre></div>
<P>
<div class="note"><b class="label">Note:</b>
<code>req.get_basic_auth_pw()</code> must be called prior to using the
<code>req.user</code> value. Apache makes no attempt to decode the
authentication information unless <code>req.get_basic_auth_pw()</code> is called.
