I'll try to give an example. Suppose you had two entries, using '==' for the same user:
plong Auth-Type = Local, User-Password == "126"
plong Auth-Type = Local, User-Password == "123"
Then, if 'plong' supplies the password "123", the 'files' module (which processes the 'users' file) will select the second entry, then the authentication module will compare the passwords in the request and config items, and the user will be accepted.
Hmm. So it does. I didn't think the server behaved that way. It does not seem terribly consistent.
OK, now *I'm* confused. What's inconsistent about the above behavior? -- George C. Kaplan gckaplan@ack.berkeley.edu Communication & Network Services 510-643-0496 University of California at Berkeley
