thanks for the answer, Massimo.

for legacy reason, the password i have in the db are stored as apache
passwords
(...because those passwords are also used to authenticated user for
different services using apache [svn, wiki, etc...])

i therefore developed a custom login method (added to
auth.settings.login_methods) which can check provided credentials
against those stored passwords.
i was wondering if it was possible to use this custom method for basic
http auth also (but it seems that login_bare only does "web2py"
authentication right?)

what i mean by this is that login_methods is very useful for
developing custom auth methods INSIDE web2py (not only restricted to
third party auth provider) and i believe this could be extended so
that the login_bare function also allows for custom auth methods.

what do you think?
