Hi,

I set up apache to run with SSL and PHP.
I would like it to be possible for the intranet users to authenticate
themselves against the standard FreeBSD passwd file.
Two questions:

a) is this a major security breach (I cannot imagine so, other than
being able to repeatedly try to authenticate, something which could be
controlled by using sessions, but then, i may be completely wrong)

b) is this doable and how?

Thanks a lot,

Raoul
