<p>

The AuthBasic Handler is a special Handler that will us AuthBasic to authenticate to a virtual host, and then play authorizations rules to allow access to the virtual 
host.
</p>

<p>
The Handler will send a <acronym title="World Wide Web">WWW</acronym>-Authenticate header to the client, to request user and password, and then check the credentials using <acronym title="Simple Object Access Protocol">SOAP</acronym> getCookies web service. When session is granted, the Handler will then check the authorizations like the standard Handler.
</p>

<p>
This can be useful to allow an third party application to access a virtual host with users credentials by sending a Basic challenge to it.

<p>

Configure the virtual host like other <a href="../../documentation/1.3/configvhost.html" class="wikilink1" title="documentation:1.3:configvhost">protected virtual host</a> but use AuthBaisc Handler instead of default Handler.

No parameters needed. But you have to allow sessions web services, see <a href="../../documentation/1.3/soapsessionbackend.html" class="wikilink1" title="documentation:1.3:soapsessionbackend">SOAP sessions backend</a>.
