mod_auth_tds is an Open Source Apache module that does http basic authentication using (instead of the flat file that mod_auth uses) a TDS compliant database server somewhere on the network.

TDS stands for Tabular Data Stream, which is the protocol that Microsoft SQL Server (and Sybase) uses to communicate between client and server, thus you can have a database of user names/passwords/groups on a Microsoft SQL server somewhere on your network, and use it for authentication on your Apache+mod_auth_tds system.

I pretty much took mod_auth_mysql and changed all the MySQL specific code to TDS specific code, using the FreeTDS library.

Requirements:
Apache 1.3.x
FreeTDS Library
