Authentication is a function offered for free by your web server (if you are
using one). For example, under Apache, you can force users to authenticate
against ViewVC by protecting the ViewVC location with authn directives:
ScriptAlias /viewvc /usr/local/viewvc/bin/cgi/viewvc.cgi
<Location /viewvc>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "ViewVC Users"
AuthUserFile /usr/local/viewvc/passwd
Require valid-user
</Location>
