Re: [PHP4BETA] IISAPI module: do we really need to have a Filter and Extension?

hmm, - i'm bcc'ing this to the zeus guy who gave me this information (hi nuno!). i don't know. - i guess we *have* to have both the filter and the extension in order to have authentication on M$. the zeus-server will give us this information (MS_REMOTE_USER,MS_REMOTE_PASSWD), so i guess i'll use it for the zeus-isapi module and we'll keep it as it is for the M$-IIS. our zeus-ISAPI module will *not* run in the zeus-server itself but thru a multy-threaded ISAPI-runner. so we should try to avoid server<->module calls to the minumum. tc On Mon, 6 Dec 1999, Zeev Suraski wrote: > Thies, > > It doesn't seem to work.
