FPCListenEntry.BasicAuthentication Property

Gets or sets whether basic authentication is used.

The standard Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) method of authentication is basic authentication. Basic authentication sends and receives user information as text characters that can be easily read. While passwords and user names are encoded, no encryption is used with basic authentication. The following describes the authentication procedure for basic authentication:

1. The client prompts the user for user name and password credentials.
2. The credentials are then encoded by the client and sent to the server.
3. The user name is verified as being an account on the Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server computer or in a trusted domain of the ISA Server.
