That is exactly what has to happen in PHP also. Araneida is a Web
Server and nothing more. So you have to write it yourself or use
something existing. You can try e.g UCW which has a login component,
you can use portableaserver which has featrues for authentication
also. 

Or you do it the araneida way and implement it yourself.

See e.g

about a discussion about it.
