Hi,
I am looking at ways to provide a network based solution for the password manager that would achieve two things:
- use a network store for the password (so that I can use it from any machine I own)
- use a password store that is protocol aware, in the sense that it can answer challenges instead of giving away passwords (e.g. for HTTP-Digest authentication).
(note: this is an idea inspired from the Plan 9 OS. See http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sys/doc/auth.pdf for more info).
I would like to know how hard it would be to intercept password requests in the mozilla code and redirect them to this remote "authentication facilitator".
If someone could point me to the right classes, that would be great.
regards,
