<h2> Notes </h2>
<h3> Adding Users </h3>
If you <em>force all clients to logon</em>, you'll need to add entries to the SRE-Filter
username/password database. The <A HREF="/srefconf?show=add_user">Add a new user</A>
option can be used for this purpose.
<h3> Circumventing logon requirements </h3>
<p> You can allowed selected clients to circumvent this <em>logon</em>
requirement by granting them
<B>In-House</b> privileges. The
<A HREF="/srefconf?show=add_inhouse">Add a privileged <EM>(an In-House)</EM> user</A>
option can be
used for this purpose.
<p>
More generally, you can grant free access to selected portions of your
site by using the
<A HREF="/srefconf?show=add_publicurl">Add a <em>public</em>
area identifier</A> option.
<h3> Technical Note: The Basic Authorization Method </h3>
SRE-Filter uses the <eM>Basic Authorization </em> method to obtain
a username and password from a client. This is a very low security
method, but does have the advantage of universal support. One nice
aspect of this method is that once a client enters her username (and
password), all of her subsequent requests to your server will
contain this information (at least until she stops her browser).
Thus, repetitive logon's are not required.
