You will have to come up with a custom solution, the OS (VMS or Windows)
will not do what you want natively. http is stateless, the credentials are
sent to the server every time a page is requested, in effect, a user is only
logged in while they are requesting web content, not while they are viewing
content. You would have to maintain state yourself and store information on
the server or in a cookie.
