What I would really like is to validate users via a look-up in a database already on the server, which seems to me to be a more secure method.

What code modifications does this script need.
Let's go with a table named passwords - how's that for imagination?
Field names would be User and Pass.
Keeping it simple, let's pretend it's an Access table in the /database directory.

One final totally armature question - where should I put this script within the web to assure that it only impacts access to the database application?

Thanks a 1,000,000 ±
