<para>
The function verifies credentials according to RFC2617. If the
credentials are verified successfully then the function will
succeed and mark the credentials as authorized (marked credentials
can be later used by some other functions). If the function was
unable to verify the credentials for some reason then it will fail
and the script should call <function>www_challenge</function> which
will challenge the user again.
</para>
<para>Meaning of the parameters is as follows:</para>

<para>
Realm is a opaque string that the user agent should
present to the user so he can decide what username and
password to use. Usually this is domain of the host the
server is running on. If an empty string "" is used
then the server will generate it from the request. In
case of REGISTER requests To header field domain will
be used (because this header field represents a user
being registered), for all other messages From header
field domain will be used.
