["Gabriel Birke" <Gabriel.Birke@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I've never used Lotus Notes, but I created an auth module that works with
our CRM software. I can give you some very general hints how to do it:

First, you need some way to exchange data with Notes, queries like "is this
username/password combination correct" or "give me a list of all users". For
this exchange Lotus has to have some kind of interface - the Wikipedia says
that the Lotus server can serve HTTP requests, you can use something like
PEAR HTTPClient for the communication between the wiki code and the Lotus
server. Alternativeley you could use webDAV mount the Lotus DB as a drive
read the data as XML files (http://sourceforge.net/projects/dominodav ).
Maybe there are other, better methods.
For the new auth method you write a new auth class in inc/auth that
subclasses auth_basic and must at least provide the "checkPass" and
"getUserData" methods. Have a look at the existing auth classes to get a
better feel for how it is done.

Greetings,

Gabriel
