Can you suggest An Authentication Script ?

Hello,
I would like to re-write my Authentication Script and make a bit more OO as
well as more Admin Friendly...

Before I start developing my own... I was wondering if there is already out
there something that has been tested and proved good, simple to integrate it
in other scripts.

Ofcourse it has to be secure. The problem is that anything that I had a look
at is full of bells and whistles...
I don't want paypal payment... and staff like that...

Any suggestions will be happily accepted ;-)

Thanks.

No problem. :-)
(I just wanted to warn you.)

Yes, all newsreaders are better than outlook express. ;-)
However, maybe your provider is not relaying newsgroups as fast as you would
want. In that case changing newreader won't help a lot.

But if you are looking for another reader:
http://www.newsreaders.com/win/clients.html

When on Windows I used FreeAgent by Forte.
You can find it on the above page.

Good luck.

Whilst I am an absolute devotee of Thunderbird for mail, I strongly prefer
MicroPlanet (Super)Gravity for nntp.

Forgive me for being curious but what does MicroPlanet (Super)Gravity
give you that TB doesn't?

It's more a case of personal preferences. I prefer the way Gravity
handles killfiles, its binary decode previewer, and probably most
importantly its hotkey navigation.

That and the fact that I like to keep my apps independent for their
specific function, not a lover of "bundled" software.

Oh granted it usually is a matter of personal preference - I know. The
other arguments in favor you present are pretty typical - killfiles,
handling binarys. Hotkeys are a new one to me. I find TB's hotkeys just
fine for my tastes. As for binaries - there are much better ways to get
binaries than newsgroups, IMHO.

As for keeping apps independent, I agree with you that monolithic
programs are sometimes bad. Then again, I don't see NNTP as really that
much different than SMTP therefore I not bothered by the fact that I use
TB to do both. In fact I also use TB to do RSS too. One can easily just
view SMTP, NNTP and RSS as communications with others (though RSS is a
bit of stretch).

Anyways, all opinions I know. Thanks for explaining yours.
