Authentification on a webserver on VMS from Windows

[W. van den Barselaar]

I think mod_ntlm (http://modntlm.sourceforge.net/) can do what you want.

quote from the site: "NTLM is an authentication protocol used by Microsoft Internet Informations Server(tm) and Microsoft Internet Explorer(tm). While it is not really secure, it offers background authentication (the workstation logon credentials of users are passed through to the web server). This feature is widely used in intranets based on these Microsoft products."

You still need to maintain a list of users that are allowed to access the website, but these users no longer need to type a username / password anymore.

According to the project page it still needs to be ported to vms though.
