Where is 'there'?  You can have the user name/password in several formats
and use different means to query that.  Apache directly supports user
id/passwords using basic auth.  It's easy with Perl to use a plain text user
id/password table.  And if you use a SQL table, CF and perl can both query
and verify user id/passwords.

What's easiest?  Depends on the tools availible to you, how many user id &
passwords are needed, how and how often they will be maintaned, and how
secure they need to be.  And how you control thier access level once they
supply a valid user id and password.
