Authentication

There are several ways of managing user authentication:

Email-based authentication
Manual accounts only
No authentication
PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules)
Shibboleth
Use a CAS server (SSO)
Use an LDAP server

The login page

Depending upon the authentication method (i.e. not applicable for email authentication) login instructions may be easily added. Alternatively, an alternate login URL may be added - please check the discussion Customising the log in page for further details.
