If you create a table in a database that holds the information that you want
to capture for them with the username as the key to the database (no
duplicates) then when they login and they're authenticated. You can pull all
necessary information you want to track on them from the table and create
your page. So, one, physical page for all users.
If you're authenticating via .htaccess you can use the environment variable
"REMOTE_USER" to use as the username to do the select on the db. Something
like:
$user = getenv("REMOTE_USER");
$sql = "Select * from usertable where username = '$user'";
