Thank you Mr. Taylor, Mr. Stienstra It feels so great to be on the cutting edge of 1999's web encryption and authorization!
Mr Taylor, I have used your module for digest authorization and was wondering if you could answer a couple of questions: What does module_function do without calling a :symbol? How is the «service» function called when I'm calling «authenticate», which only function is to raise if a condition is not met? Mr. Stienstra, I have looked into using SSL with WEBrick. Thank you very much, it is exactly what I was looking for.
