But isnt 2.16.0 due for release fairly soon?  I'll be upgrading to it so i
can try this out at that time.

The latest version of RDacity has fixes for the User/Password problem.  It
now will
use the user password correctly, and will even support Windows Active
Directory if
your Rivendell System has the PAM module running.

The Rivendell WEB API has a new feature that uses the database to store
"tickets" for valid users.
Once that ticket is created (via User/Password Login) then we access the
Web Methods using the
ticket instead of User/Password for Export/Import etc..

Long story short, Rivendell handles the Authentication for you. If you dont
have a valid ticket
then a Login screen prompts you for your sign on criteria. There is an
administration screen (in RDADMIN) that
handles the tickets and how long the live before expiration (much like
internet cookies). If a ticket expires then
the system will require a the user to Login again.


Thanks Todd!

Important caveat: these features actually require Rivendell v2.16.0 (not
yet released) or later in order to work fully.

Cheers!
