I have been using a password manager supplied by my ISP that uses the .htaccess file for secure access on a online district directory. The directory contains names/addresses/phone numbers etc. that we don't want out to the general public.
The password manager on my local system is getting slower and slower the more users it has in its password file. Imagine my excitement when I was told by one of my users about a thing called XML-RPC that was now being used by my organization, and that the webmaster for his local chapter were getting ready to use it to authenticate users for their chapter members. (each member of our organization already has a member id/password for my organizations website) I contacted said webmaster and I found he was using asp and MSII interface while I am using linux/php/xml.... And all the help I got was a link to a webpage on my organizations server that also only talked about NT related connections. I have finally successfully been able to receive a expected response from my organizations server when I send a userid and password with phpxmlrpc. To make a very long story short, now I need some help utilizing the returned info. How can I have my users go to a form, enter userid/pasword get back the response via phpxmlrpc and then jump to the secured directory on my server? I hope this opus makes sense. If you don't know can you please point me to a website that my talk about this -- For information about how to subscribe and unsubscribe from this list visit http://xmlrpc.usefulinc.com/list.html
