Emulate mod_auth_mysql in nginx?

[Floren Munteanu]

Hi,

I was wondering if we could emulate mod_auth_mysql in nginx?

AuthName "Your Protected Area"
AuthType Basic 
Auth_MySQL_Username mysqluser
Auth_MySQL_Password mysqlpass
Auth_MySQL_DB database
Auth_MySQL_Password_Table users
Auth_MySQL_Username_Field username
Auth_MySQL_Password_Field passwd
Auth_MySQL_Encrypted_Passwords Off
Auth_MySQL_Non_Persistent On
Auth_MYSQL On 
Auth_MySQL_Empty_Passwords Off
require valid-user

INSERT INTO user VALUES ('abc', '123');

+-------------+-----------+
| username    | passwd    |
+-------------+-----------+
| abc         | 123       |
+-------------+-----------+

Thanks for your help.

Floren
