Ok, so this is not a bug. If anything, this is a feature request.

But to me, neither HTTP basic nor digest authentication are actually required. Web authentication nowadays is done via posting username + password and then a session is created. The client authenticates further requests by including that session handle (as an URL parameter or as a cookie in the http request).

Given that, I don't really want to support the HTTP authentication mechanisms.

Hi,

I'm a LwIP user from china. I found that HTTPD doesn't support HTTP basic authentication. Would you consider adding support?

Thanks.
