''Authentication'' is the process of identifying the current user. TiddlyWiki supports three types of authentication:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* [[Anonymous Access|WebServer Anonymous Access]] allows any user to access resources without requiring authentication. Optionally, a username can still be specified for signing edits
|
||
|
* [[Basic Authentication|WebServer Basic Authentication]] requires the user to enter a username and password combination which TiddlyWiki validates against an internal database of credentials
|
||
|
* [[Header Authentication|WebServer Header Authentication]] requires an external proxy to place the username of the current user in a trusted header of the request. It is often used as the basis of "single sign-on" features
