Hello all, I want to be able to use Basic Authentication without the need
of specific accounts in my server machine. What I want is to be able to get
the browser sent user and password, and use that to do custom
authentication (checking them with a database, etc.).

Is that possible? The only thing I can do manually is to request the popup,
but the AUTH_USER and AUTH_PASSWORD never get to me (I think IIS is simply
trying to authenticate, and its never returning to my app).

Any help, very appreciated.

Regards,
Pablo
