Provides methods to create and manipulate .htaccess files.
Provides methods to manipulate and authenticate against standard Unix,
SMB server, AuthUser (.htpasswd), AuthDigest (.htdigest), CVS pserver
and custom formatted password files.
With PEAR::File_SMBPasswd you can maintain smbpasswd-files, usualy used by
SAMBA.
HTML_Crypt provides methods to encrypt text, which can be later be decrypted
using JavaScript on the client side.
This is very useful to prevent spam robots collecting email addresses from your
site, included is a method to add mailto links to the text being generated.
LiveUser is a set of classes for dealing with user authentication
and permission management. Basically, there are three main elements that
make up this package:
* The LiveUser class
* The Auth containers
* The Perm containers
Currently available are containers using:
PEAR::DB, PEAR::MDB, PEAR::MDB2, PEAR::XML_Tree and PEAR::Auth.
LiveUser_Admin is meant to be used with the LiveUser package.
It is composed of all the classes necessary to administrate
data used by LiveUser.
This package provides an object oriented interface to GNU Privacy
Guard (GPG). It requires the GPG executable to be on the system.
Though GPG can support symmetric-key cryptography, this package is intended
only to facilitate public-key cryptography.
This package provides an interface to the cracklib (libcrack) libraries that
come standard on most Unix-like distributions. This allows you to check
passwords against dictionaries of words to ensure some minimal level of
password security.
From the cracklib README
CrackLib makes literally hundreds of tests to determine whether you've
chosen a bad password.
* It tries to generate words from your username and gecos entry to tries
to match them against what you've chosen.
* It checks for simplistic patterns.
* It then tries to reverse-engineer your password into a dictionary
word, and searches for it in your dictionary.
- after all that, it's PROBABLY a safe(-ish) password. 8-)
Python-mcrypt is a comprehensive Python interface to the mcrypt library,
which provides a uniform interface to several symmetric encryption algorithms.
TrustedPickle is a Python module that can save most any arbitrary Python object
in a signed pickle file. There are two big differences between this module and
the standard pickle module. First, TrustedPickle can pickle a module, but the
standard pickle module cannot. Second, TrustedPickle includes a signature that
can verify the data's origin before the data is unpickled.
