Summary     : Authentication plugin for cubicweb instances
Description :
This cube provides an authentication plugin which ensures proper
authentication of users behind a trusted reverse proxy (eg. Apache +
mod_ssl + mod_auth_kerb).

The idea is that if the CubicWeb application is behind a reverse proxy
that is responsible for authenticating users, the CubicWeb application
do trust this latter when it says the user is authenticated as "user".
This information is simply passed from the reverse proxy to the CubicWeb
application by an entry in the HTTP header.
