website Password Authentication

We've heard the request a thousand times...

How can we easily authenticate hundreds of users who visit our website on a case by case basis, giving each their own user name and password and change those passwords without having to contact the web host provider.   Well, before the password protection control panel this was really impossible.  This is because in  the past the only way to change a username or password for a website on an NT server was to physically be located on the network. Microsoft® FrontPage® surfaces the feature but this is because FrontPage is also designed to run on an Intranet where everyone is physically connected to the network and security is less of an issue. The password authentication will help you do the following:

  • Do you want to sell information.
  • Distribute secure information.
  • Restrict access to only your customers.
  • Charge an entrance fee.
Features:
  • Define as many users and passwords you desire
  • Make changes 24x7 using easy Web based administration
  • Keep similar users together to form groups and administer passwords for groups independent of individual users
  • Use your own database of passwords and update them automatically using a form.
  • Make password changes independent of NT.
  • Works with Microsoft FrontPage.
  • Validate with Basic Authentication or with cookies.
  • Netscape browsers. authentication works without NT Challenge Response.
