Title: User manager panel authentication
Post by: firstbishop on May 11, 2006, 01:10:53 PM

Our network users log in to our intranet using their SME usernames and passwords. Once they have logged in I would like to be able to let them access the user manager panel to change passwords, forwarding addresses etc without having to enter their username and password again.

Would I be able to do this by setting a PHP session variable? I have tried using PHP_AUTH_USER and PHP_AUTH_PW but still seem to be missing something.

Any ideas would be welcome. Thanks, Mike.

The server manager doesn't use PHP, so PHP session variables are of no use to you.

I don't know of any way to do what you want to do.
