Hi Clifford, I'm not the iPhone developer. I created the service in web2py and someone else is trying to consume the service via iPhone. I know nothing of the iPhone environment (and not have one too), and also did not find any reference material to verify the authentication method actually used in web2py does not work with iPhone, I'm guided only by the iPhone developer said, that the way I implemented it can not authenticate. Your idea is good, but the project is to provide a service only.
