Look for more information regarding HTTP Digest Authentication. Also, because web services do not have the luxury of allowing for client-side cookies (as you are not loading a URL through the browser) most web services require the authentication to happen on every request. HTTP Digest Authentication allows you to bundle authentication with your request.

Hello.

I'm building a simple iPhone app that synchronizes to a webservice
served by Symfony 1.4. This app requires the user to be logged in.

My question is, how can the user log in Symfony from the iPhone app?
And how can I keep the session opened through the next petitions? Is
this secure?

Chapter 15 of the Practical Symfony book talks about webservices, but
I can't find any guide about sessions.


Thanks in advance.
