Password Authentication

The authentication API provides the PasswordAuth interface to perform the traditional password authentication. In this authentication mechanism, the user specifies the user name and the corresponding password for authentication. The password entered by the user is then verified.

AuthMinder supports partial password authentication, if you enable this feature, then the user will be challenged to enter the characters in different positions of the password. For example, if the password is casablanca!, then the user can be asked to enter the characters in positions 1, 3, and 8, which would be csn.
