How it works is: SSL logs you in based on your client cert. Instead of popping a login box, it gets your userid from the cert, and then authenticates you by doing a "fake" login using that userid and a password of "password". If you have a valid entry in the htpassword file, login succeeds and REMOTE_USER is set. If it fails, the login box pops up (and unfortunately you can't login; which is ok).

This plugin only provides authentication/registration. It's up to you to configure access restrictions later via WebPreferences, TWikiPreferences, Main.TWikiGroups, etc, or using an access restrictions plugin (are there any?). See TWiki.TWikiAccessControl for more info.

In addition, this plugin provides access to environment variables in a TWiki topic (this was necessary for registration to work).
