+Authentication
+--------------
+
+There is currently no separate authentication implemented in webbox.
+Instead, the web browser's authentication can be used, e.g.
+
+ <Directory "/usr/lib/webbox">
+
+ # ...
+
+ AuthType Basic
+ AuthName "Webbox"
+ AuthUserFile "/etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite.htpasswd"

+
+ <Directory "/var/www/webbox">
+ AuthType Basic
+ AuthName "Webbox"
+ AuthUserFile "/etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite.htpasswd"
+ Require valid-user
+ </Directory>
+
+Add a login/password pair to the password file:
+
+# htpasswd -c /etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite.htpasswd username
+
+Remember to secure both the static web server path and the fastcgi application
+paths in the browser, i.e. /usr/lib/webbox and /var/www/webbox
