| BasicAuthenticationModule |
This module performs basic authentication. For details on basic authentication see RFC 2617. Based on the work by Mike Volodarsky (www.iis.net/learn/develop/runtime-extensibility/developing-a-module-using-net) The basic operational flow is: On AuthenticateRequest: extract the basic authentication credentials verify the credentials if succesfull, create and send authentication cookie On SendResponseHeaders: if there is no authentication cookie in request, clear response, add unauthorized status code (401) and add the basic authentication challenge to trigger basic authentication. |
