Which user authentication methods are supported by CCBill?
CCBill supports a variety of authentication methods which can be used to restrict access to a members area or other protected content. The default CCBill installation uses standard HTTP authentication. In this case, content is secured through the use of a .htaccess file placed in the protected directory.
CCBill also supports database authentication via .htaccess. To do this, your database must contain a table that stores login information. Then, contact Client Support and provide the following database information to complete the setup:
Database URL
Database Name
Table Name
Database Username
Database Password
Username Field Nam
Password Field Name
CCBill can assist in the creation of custom authentication setups using the Background Post system. Such setups can integrate with existing authentication systems; contact Client Support to determine if this method is appropriate for your site.
Other user management and authentication systems are also supported but will require a custom or third-party solution. Transaction processing occurs independently of user authentication. Consult the documentation for your authentication solution for Web site integration details.
