<?php
//  Using  Auth_HTTP  to  limit  access require_once('db_login.php'); require_once("Auth/HTTP.php");
//  We  use  the  same  connection  string  as  the  pear  DB  functions
$AuthOpts  =  array(
'dsn'  =>  "mysql://$db_username:$db_password@$db_host/$db_database",
'table'  =>  "users",  //  your  table  name
'usernamecol'  =>  "username",  //  the  table  username  column
'passwordcol'  =>  "password",  //  the  table  password  column
'cryptType'  =>  "md5",  //  password  encryption  type
);
$authenticate  =  new  Auth_HTTP("DB",  $AuthOpts);
//  Set  the  realm  name
$authenticate->setRealm('Member  Area');
//  Authentication  failed  error  message
$authenticate->setCancelText('<h2>Access  Denied</h2>');
//  Request  authentication
$authenticate->start();
//  compare  username  and  password  to  stored  values if  ($authenticate->getAuth()){
echo  "Welcome  back  to  our  site  ".$authenticate->username.".";
}
?>
