Apache: using system passwords

[Stephen R Laniel]

I'd like my Apache users to be able to sign into a specific
part of their site using the same password that they use for
email and shell access. I assume this is possible? It
certainly would be more convenient and less hackish: as it
stands, keeping their htpasswd password synched with their
shell password is a pain, when it's not flat-out impossible.

There must be some canonical way to do this, right? Maybe
using PAM somehow?
