## Issues / TODO
There are two unresoved (yet) issues with the app:
- First, I suppose to use Python app, running as service, for the user authentication in the PHP scripts because I can't make the PAM PHP extension works 😒 Google's searches returned tonns of useless and non-working advises and suggestions; even ChatGPT can't resolve that issue. It looks like this module is deprecated but I can't find any working replacement.
By the way, if I'll get PAM module working in PHP, Python app and auth.php will be replaced by very simple call:
``` if (pam_auth($username, $password))```
BTW, I found a [third-party implementation](https://github.com/amishmm/php-pam) but haven't tried yet.
- Secondly, a very strange error occurs: if I use the authenticate function from the **auth.php** module in file_list.php (adding ```require_once 'auth.php';```), then the file list is not appearing on web page. Although the user is authenticated and **file_list.php** sends a list of files in JSON format. If I define this function (using copy&paste) in the **file_list.php** module itself, then everything works great.
Perhaps this has something to do with PHP session - I'm not a big expert in PHP and web programming. If anyone can help solve this problem, I would be very grateful - I hate strange errors!
