Great plugin. Instead of setting up ht authentication yourself you can use this 
plugin and it will allow you to use an existing user and password to authenticate
instead of adding one on top or for creating this type of authentication yourself
connection it to the users in the admin. Only thing I missed was some more documentation
so 4/5 starts. Thanks!
